description At present, there are increasing applications for rosette diffusers for buoyant jets with a lower density than the ambient water, mainly in the discharge of wastewater from municipal administrations and sea water desalination. It is important to study the mixing effects of wastewater discharge for the benefit of environmental protection, but because the multiport discharge of the wastewater concentration field is greatly affected by the mixing and interacting functions of wastewater, the traditional research methods on single-port discharge are invalid. This study takes the rosette multiport jet as a research subject to develop a new technology of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling and carry out convolutional neural network (CNN) simulation of the concentration field of a multiport buoyant jet. This study takes advantage of CFD technology to simulate the mixing process of a rosette multiport buoyant jet, uses CNNs to construct the machine learning model, and applies RSME, R<sup>2</sup> to conduct evaluations of the models. This work also makes comparisons with the machine learning approach based on multi-gene genetic programming, to assess the performance of the proposed approach. The experimental results show that the models constructed based on the proposed approach meet the accuracy requirement and possess better performance compared with the traditional machine learning method, and they can provide reasonable predictions.
