Abstract

Heat pipes are one of the most efficient devices for transporting heat from one region to another. It was utilised in a wide range of cooling applications. Heat pipe’s thermal behaviours are deeply interlinked with the outlet temperature. To predict the behaviours of the heat pipe, a model was essential to predict the outlet temperature. In this work, Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Deep Neural Network (DNN) and Deep Neural Network with Dropouts (DNN-DO) have been used to predict the outlet temperature of the heat pipe. The result shows that, out of four, the most precise model was CNN, followed by DNN-DO, DNN and ANN. Compared to the ANN model, CNN’s mean absolute error (MAE) is reduced by 66.3545% and the R2 score is increased by 15.8346%. In the case of percentage error (PE), 95.0649% data predicted between ±1.5% by the CNN model.
