Cover Story: This study addresses the challenge of accurately correlating detailed and reduced thermal models in aerospace applications by using heuristic global optimization methods. In the context of increasingly complex thermal systems, traditional manual correlation methods are usually a time-consuming task. This research employs a series of numerical simulations using methods such as Genetic Algorithms, Cultural Algorithms, and Artificial Immune Systems, with an emphasis on parameter tuning to optimize the reduced thermal model correlation. Results indicate that these heuristic methods can achieve high-accuracy correlations, with transient simulations exhibiting temperature differences below 3 °C, thereby validating the hypothesis that heuristic methods can effectively navigate complex parameter optimizations. View this paper
