| contents | Autoregressive neural surrogates offer computational acceleration for fluid dynamics but inherently suffer from error accumulation and non-physical drift during long-term rollouts. Although hybrid strategies combining surrogate models and physics-based solvers have been proposed, they are limited to manual implementations for low-dimensional benchmarks. In this study, we propose an OpenFOAM-based hybrid framework, XRePIT (eXtensible Residual-based Physics-nformed Transfer learning), characterized by its fastness, robustness, and scalability. Unlike prior manual implementations (e.g., RePIT), XRePIT integrates a fully automated open-source workflow that manages the state transition between a neural surrogate and a traditional numerical solver (OpenFOAM) based on a monitored residual threshold. Using 3D buoyancy-driven flow as a testbed, we demonstrate that this residual-guided coupling enables stable long-term simulation-ell beyond the stability horizon of standalone surrogates. Our results indicate that the hybrid loop achieves up to 2.91x wall-clock acceleration while maintaining relative L2 errors within O(1E-03) Furthermore, we benchmark the framework's extensibility by introducing a finite-volume-based Fourier neural operator (FVFNO), confirming that the stabilizing effect of the residual guardrail is agnostic to the underlying neural architecture. This study provides a deployable methodology for fast, robust, and automated hybrid simulation in 3D unsteady flow. |
