Site (fixed), then map every design at once
Each point is one design (colour = wall conductance hZ). The red frontier is the efficient trade-off between heat delivered and source temperature (higher → better heat-pump COP). Mapped instantly by the surrogate.
Global sensitivity, which design inputs drive each performance output (Sobol total-effect indices, analytic, cross-checked vs Monte-Carlo). The surrogate computes over the whole design space instantly.
Read it: outlet temperature is driven mostly by the wall coupling hZ; heat delivered and pumping cost are driven by flow rate, pressure drop almost entirely so. A sensitivity study that would take thousands of full FEM runs, returned as one chart.
