Energy ratio of produced biodiesel in hydrodynamic cavitation reactor equipped with LabVIEW controller and artificial intelligence

Naderloo, Leila - In: Energy reports 6 (2020), pp. 1456-1467

(ANFIS), artificial neural network (ANN) and response surface methodology (RSM) methods were employed. The average energy … ratio was obtained 1.205, and the R2 of the best ANFIS, ANN and RSM models were 0.989, 0.966, and 0.990, respectively, and … MSE was calculated at 0.0005, 0.0015 and 0.00003. The results revealed that the RSM and ANFIS models were preferred to the …
