Neural network analysis of fin-tube refrigerating heat exchanger with limited experimental data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of accuracy in heat rate estimations from artificial neural network (ANN) models of heat exchangers used for refrigeration applications and present a methodology based on the cross-validation technique to find regions where not enough data are available to construct a reliable neural network.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic prediction and control of heat exchangers using artificial neural networks

TL;DR: The artificial neural network (ANN) technique is extended to the simulation of the time-dependent behavior of a heat exchanger (HX) and used to control the temperature of air passing over it, which allows the system to reach steady-state operating conditions in regions where the PI and PID controllers are not able to perform as well.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of fin spacing on convection in a plate fin and tube heat exchanger

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of fin spacing on the over-tube side of a single-row fin-tube heat exchanger through flow visualization and numerical computation is examined and a peak in the Nusselt number occurs at the horseshoe vortex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transitions and Bifurcations in Laminar Buoyant Flows in Confined Enclosures

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss l'instabilite d'ecoulement, de la bifurcation et de la transition vers la turbulence d'un ecoulement dans des cavites rectangulaires tridimensionnelles chauffees par le bas et les cotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variable Property Effects in Laminar Natural Convection in a Square Enclosure

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical, finite-difference study has been carried out to determine the effects of variable properties on the temperature and velocity fields and the heat transfer rate in a differentially heated, two-dimensional square enclosure.
