The shape of a bluff body section is of high importance to its aerostatic performance. Obtaining the aerostatic performance of a specific shape based on wind tunnel tests and CFD simulations takes a lot of time, which affects evaluation efficiency. This paper proposes a novel fully convolutional neural network model that enables rapid prediction from shape to aerostatic performance. Its main innovations are: (1) The proposal of a new shape description method in which the shape is described by the combination of the wall distance field and the space coordinate field, which can efficiently express the influencing factors of the shape on the aerostatic performance. (2) A step-by-step strategy in which the pressure field is used as the model output and then the calculation of the aerostatic coefficient is proposed. Compared with the simple direct prediction of the aerostatic coefficient, the logical connection between input and output can be enhanced and the prediction accuracy can be improved. It is found that the model proposed in this paper has good prediction accuracy, and its average relative error is 9.42% compared with the CFD calculation results. Compared with the direct use of the shape as the model input, the accuracy is improved by 13.25%; compared with the direct use of the drag coefficient as the model output, the accuracy is improved by 10%. Compared with traditional CFD calculations and wind tunnel experiments, this method can be used as a fast auxiliary screening method for the optimization of the aerodynamic shapes of bluff body sections.
