  • Accurate aerodynamic field prediction is crucial for vehicle drag evaluation, but the computational cost of high-fidelity CFD hinders its use in iterative design workflows. While learning-based methods enable fast and scalable inference, accurately aerodynamic fields modeling remains challenging, as it demands capturing both long-range geometric effects and fine-scale flow structures. Existing approaches typically encode geometry only once at the input and formulate prediction as a one-shot mapping, which often leads to diluted global shape awareness and insufficient resolution of sharp local flow variations. To address these issues, we propose GA-Field, a Geometry-Aware Field prediction network that introduces two complementary design components: (i) a global geometry injection mechanism that repeatedly conditions the network on a compact 3D geometry embedding at multiple stages to preserve long-range geometric consistency, and (ii) a coarse-to-fine field refinement strategy to recover sharp local aerodynamic details. GA-Field achieves new state-of-the-art performance on ShapeNet-Car and the large-scale DrivAerNet++ benchmark for surface pressure, wall shear stress, and 3D velocity prediction tasks, while exhibiting strong out-of-distribution generalization across different vehicle categories.
