In flow experiments, it is often necessary to measure the flow time history at several locations. However, the number of sensors in the experiment is limited by sensor size and their interference with flow. By optimizing sensor placement, the testing efficiency and accuracy can be improved with more significant time-varying features being captured. Using a time history deep learning method, the study carries out the dimensionality reduction and clustering on the flows of the time-varying features, obtaining distribution of measurement points distributions with similar features. This provides a basis for optimal sensor placement. As an example, the low Reynolds number flow around a square and a circular cylinder was studied respectively. Firstly, dimensionality reduction and feature reconstruction was performed on the flow's time-varying big data. Next, clustering analysis was applied to the low-dimensional latent code, followed by feature judgment across different flow regions, yielding the optimal sensor arrangement for the physical quantities to be measured. The results show that the method in this paper obtains a more refined layout of sensors compared with traditional empirical approaches, providing a useful reference for flow experiments.
