Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

• The current study proposes innovative mathematical correlations for estimating the density of mono-nanofluids. • An extensive and comprehensive data bank comprising 4004 experimental data-points was employed to guarantee the robustness and applicability of the derived correlations. • Two rigorous machine-learning techniques, namely Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) and Gene Expression Programming (GEP), were used to develop correlations. • The GEP-based correlation was highlighted as the most accurate model, with AAPRE=0.6614% and R 2 =0.9671. • The key findings and implications of this study can significantly advance the applied fields of thermal engineering. The current research offers credible mathematical models solely for estimating mono-nanofluids' density ( ρ nf ), which can be useful for thermal engineering calculations required by various industries and applications. Accordingly, a comprehensive data bank encompassing 4004 experimental data-points was utilized to execute two rigorous machine-learning techniques: Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) and Gene Expression Programming (GEP). Subsequently, two high-accuracy correlations were fine-tuned based on the four independent variables: average nanoparticle diameter ( d np ), nanoparticle mass concentration ( ϕ m ), nanoparticle density ( ρ np ), and base-fluid density ( ρ bf ). Two variables pressure ( P ) and temperature ( T ), with rather minor impacts on the density of the mono-nanofluids under investigation, were excluded in the final correlations as a result of the modeling process and the intelligent operation of the machine-learning techniques. By performing multiple statistical and graphical analyses, comparative evaluations highlighted the superior performance and outstanding accuracy of the GEP-based correlation (with AAPRE=0.6614% and R 2 =0.9671). Moreover, sensitivity analysis and parametric trend assessments revealed that ϕ m and ρ bf were the most crucial variables affecting ρ nf values, with relevancy factors of approximately 0.72 and 0.71, respectively. By considering the GEP-based correlation's outputs and applying the leverage statistical approach, a considerable portion (96.33%) of the total data-points was identified as valid data.
