Chapter 7 Prediction of compressor performance using artificial neural network
-
C. Karthikeyan
Abstract
Compressors are essential to many industrial processes, including the provision of compressed air for pneumatic tools, driving refrigeration cycles, and transporting gases through pipelines. With an emphasis on the principles of fluid machinery and the application of artificial neural networks for the prediction of compressor performance, this chapter offers a complete overview of compressor applications across a variety of industries. It starts by describing several compressor types and their basic operating principles. The discussion then moves on to a variety of industrial uses, including compressed air generation, refrigeration, air conditioning, gas transportation, and chemical synthesis. Additionally, it explores the difficulties and opportunities associated with using compressors in industrial settings. This chapter also discusses how different ANN types, such as the multilayer perceptron network (MLP), general regression neural network (GRNN), and radial basis function network (RBFN), can reconstruct the axial compressor performance map. For engineers and technicians interested in modelling the compressor using the latest technology, this chapter is helpful.
