ANFIS modeling of biodiesels' physical and engine characteristics: A review

Abstract

Population increase has resulted in an increase in the worldwide demand for alternative fuels due to depleting resources. There is a periodic increase in concern about the engine performance, pollutant emissions, and their predictions, from an engine using biodiesels. The use of intelligent algorithms in modeling and forecasting alternative fuels characteristics and their performance in engines are critically reviewed in this study. The paper aims at demonstrating with artificial intelligence methodologies the main conclusions of the recent research done for the above topic from 2012 to 2020. This article attempted to demonstrate an exploratory examination of the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) soft computing technique used for the exact measurement and analysis of engine performance, emissions of exhaust engines when biodiesel is used as an alternative fuel. Additionally, the yield of biodiesel and their different characteristics predicted using ANFIS are also reviewed. Integration of particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm (GA), and response surface methodology (RSM), either for comparison or optimization with ANFIS is presented. The summary of all studies is provided in tabular form. For the demonstration purpose, the ANFIS studies predicting different biodiesel and engine characters are provided with illustrative figures. The ANFIS prediction related to biodiesel used engine and biodiesel self-characteristics is found to be excellent. The ANFIS accuracy reported is better than the artificial neural network (ANN) accuracy. A minimum of 0.9 R 2 value is generally obtained which is around 5% greater than the ANN modeling results reported.However, the ANFIS predictions are much more fitter than the RSM predictions. The integration of ANFIS-PSO and ANFIS-GA provided much more optimized results.

“…However, choosing the correct neural network is crucial for the accuracy of the ANN model . An ANN model consists of three layers: the input layer, hidden layer, and output layer . The hidden layer acts as a bridge between the input layer and the output layer, and its bias and weights are adjusted until the difference between the experimental and predicted values is minimized, resulting in a minimal error …”
