Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Machine Learning Based Developing Flow Control Technique Over Circular Cylinders(Asme, 2023) Turkoglu, Hasmet; Ayli, Ece; Kocak, EyupThis paper demonstrates the feasibility of blowing and suction for flow control based on the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations at a low Reynolds number flows. The effects of blowing and suction position, and the blowing and suction mass flowrate, and on the flow control are presented in this paper. The optimal conditions for suppressing the wake of the cylinder are investigated by examining the flow separation and the near wake region; analyzing the aerodynamic force (lift and drag) fluctuations using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) to separate the effects of small-scale turbulent structures in the wake region. A method for stochastic analysis using machine learning techniques is proposed. Three different novel machine learning methods were applied to CFD results to predict the variation in drag coefficient due to the vortex shedding. Although, the prediction power of all the methods utilized is in the acceptable accuracy range, the Gaussian process regression (GPR) method is more accurate with an R-2(coefficient of determination) > 0.95. The results indicate that by optimizing the blowing and suction parameters like mass flowrate, slot location, and the slot configuration, up to 20% reduction can be achieved in the drag coefficient.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 17A Comparative Study of Multiple Regression and Machine Learning Techniques for Prediction of Nanofluid Heat Transfer(Asme, 2022) Ayli, Ece; Turkoglu, Hasmet; Kocak, EyupThe aim of this article is to introduce and discuss prediction power of the multiple regression technique, artificial neural network (ANN), and adaptive neuro-fuzzy interface system (ANFIS) methods for predicting the forced convection heat transfer characteristics of a turbulent nanofluid flow in a pipe. Water and Al2O3 mixture is used as the nanofluid. Utilizing fluent software, numerical computations were performed with volume fraction ranging between 0.3% and 5%, particle diameter ranging between 20 and 140 nm, and Reynolds number ranging between 7000 and 21,000. Based on the computationally obtained results, a correlation is developed for the Nusselt number using the multiple regression method. Also, based on the computational fluid dynamics results, different ANN architectures with different number of neurons in the hidden layers and several training algorithms (Levenberg-Marquardt, Bayesian regularization, scaled conjugate gradient) are tested to find the best ANN architecture. In addition, ANFIS is also used to predict the Nusselt number. In the ANFIS, number of clusters, exponential factor, and membership function (MF) type are optimized. The results obtained from multiple regression correlation, ANN, and ANFIS were compared. According to the obtained results, ANFIS is a powerful tool with a R-2 of 0.9987 for predictions.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 17Developing and Implementation of an Optimization Technique for Solar Chimney Power Plant With Machine Learning(Asme, 2021) Kocak, Eyup; Bayer, Ozgur; Beldek, Ulas; Yapic, Ekin Ozgirgin; Ayli, Ece; Ulucak, Oguzhan; Yapici, Ekin ÖzgirginGreen energy has seen a huge surge of interest recently due to various environmental and financial reasons. To extract the most out of a renewable system and to go greener, new approaches are evolving. In this paper, the capability of Artificial Neural Network and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System in geometrical optimization of a solar chimney power plant (SCPP) to enhance generated power is investigated to reduce the time cost and errors when optimization is performed with numerical or experimental methods. It is seen that both properly constructed artificial neural networks (ANN) and adaptive-network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) optimized geometries give higher performance than the numerical results. Also, to validate the accuracy of the ANN and ANFIS predictions, the obtained results are compared with the numerical results. Both soft computing methods over predict the power output values with MRE values of 12.36% and 7.25% for ANN and ANFIS, respectively. It is seen that by utilizing ANN and ANFIS algorithms, more power can be extracted from the SCPP system compared to conventional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) optimized geometry with trying a lot more geometries in a notably less time when it is compared with the numerical technique. It is worth mentioning that the optimization method that is developed can be implemented to all engineering problems that need geometric optimization to maximize or minimize the objective function.
