Abstract:Heat exchangers are utilized in a vast region of the process industry for heating and cooling. Long-term operation of heat exchangers results in decreased efficiency due to many problems, such as fouling. Therefore, the object of this research paper is to use three artificial intelligence techniques (feedforward neural networks-multilayer perceptron (FNN-MLP), nonlinear autoregressive networks with exogenous inputs (NARX), and support vector machines (SVM-RBF)) for predicting the fouling resistance in the tube… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
