摘要

Heat exchangers are equipment for energy transfer within industrial processes. The implementation of artificial neural networks (ANN) in this type of device aims to predict thermal behavior and gather more data through a validated ANN model, subsequently optimizing the equipment and/or process. In this work, a model with an ANN was developed to predict the outlet temperatures of working fluids in a laboratory-scale countercurrent heat exchanger. Through a three-level experimental design, data are obtained for training, validating, and testing the ANN model. The results present a statistical analysis for model selection (MSE, MAE, RMSE, and R2).
