Özet
Deep learning (DL), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Kernel Nearest Neighbor (k-NN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) have been applied to numerous fields owing to their high-accuracy and ability to analyze the non-linear problems. In this study, these machine learning algorithms (MLAs) are used to predict emission and performance characteristics of a CI engine fuelled with various metal-oxide based nano particles (Al2O3, CuO, and TiO2) at a mass fractions of 200 ppm. Assessed parameters in the study are carbon dioxide (CO), nitrogen oxide (NOx), exhaust gas temperature (EGT), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), and brake thermal efficiency (BTE). To evaluate the success of algorithms, four metrics (R-2, RMSE, rRMSE, and MBE) are discussed in detail. Tests performed at varying engine speeds from 1500 rpm to 3400 rpm with the intervals of 100 rpm. The addition of nanoparticles simultaneously reduced CO and NOx emissions because they ensured more complete combustion thanks to their inherent oxygen, the higher surface to volume ratio, superior thermal conductivities and their catalytic activity role. Further, the nano-sized particles ensured an accelerated heat transfer from the combustion chamber. In comparison with that of neat diesel fuel, the reduction in NOx is found to be 3.28, 7.53, and 10.05%, and the reduction in CO is found to be 8.3, 11.6, and 15.5% for TiO2, Al2O3, and CuO test fuels, respectively. Moreover, the presence of nanoparticles in test fuels has improved engine performance. As compared with those of neat diesel fuel, the doping of nanoparticles drops the BSFC value by 5.54, 7.89, and 9.96% for TiO2, CuO, and Al2O3, respectively, and enhanced BTE value to be 6.15, 8.87, and 11.23% for TiO2, CuO, and Al2O3, respectively. On the other hand, it can be said that all algorithms presented very satisfying results in the prediction of CI engine responses. All R-2 has changed between 0.901 and 0.994, and DL has given the highest R-2 value for each engine response. In terms of rRMSE, all results (except for one result in k-NN) are categorized as excellent according to the classification in the literature. Considering all metrics together, DL is giving the best results in the prediction of engine responses for the dataset used in this paper. Then it is closely followed by ANN, SVM, and k-NN algorithms, respectively. In conclusion, this paper is proving that the nanoparticle addition for ICEs is significantly dropping the exhaust pollutants, and improving the engine performance, and further the results can be successfully predicted with the machine learning algorithms.
