Accurate prediction of dynamic viscosity of polyalpha-olefin boron nitride nanofluids using machine learning by Ahmad K. Sleiti (15955149)

“…The elimination of the shear rate parameter from the input layer improved the accuracy of the ANN model to an absolute relative error of less than 1.89% over the full temperature range (−19.7 °C–70 °C) compared to 11% in the traditional correlation-based model. These results suggest that the use of machine learning models can significantly improve the accuracy of predicting the viscosity of PAO-hBN nanofluids. …”
