RESUMO
Heat transfer of a silver/water nanofluid in a two-phase closed thermosyphon that is thermally enhanced by magnetic field has been predicted by an optimized artificial Neural Network. Artificial neural network is a technique with flexible mathematical structure that is capable of identifying complex non-linear relationships between input and output data. A multi-layer perception neural network was used to estimate the thermal efficiency and resistance of a thermosyphon during application of a magnetic field and using nanoparticles in the water as the working fluid. The magnetic field strength, volume fraction of nanofluid in water and inlet power were used as input parameters and the thermal efficiency and thermal resistance were used as output parameters. The results were compared with experimental data and it was found that the thermal efficiency and resistance estimated by the multi-layer perception neural network are accurate. The GA-ANN (Genetic Algorithm-Artificial Neural network) predicts the thermosyphon behavior correctly within the given range of the training data. In this study, a new approach for the auto-design of neural networks, based on a genetic algorithm, has been used to predict collection output of a closed thermosyphon.
