An optimal feed-forward artificial neural network model and a new empirical correlation for prediction of the relative viscosity of Al2O3-engine oil nanofluid

Abstract This study presents the design of an artificial neural network (ANN) to evaluate and predict the viscosity behavior of Al2O3/10W40 nanofluid at different temperatures, shear rates, and volume fraction of nanoparticles. Nanofluid viscosity ( $${\mu }_{nf}$$ μ nf ) is evaluated at volume frac...
