Abstract

This paper presents a study investigating the performance of functionally graded material (FGM) annular fins in heat transfer applications. An annular fin is a circular or annular structure used to improve heat transfer in various systems such as heat exchangers, electronic cooling systems, and power generation equipment. The main objective of this study is to analyze the efficiency of the ring fin in terms of heat transfer and temperature distribution. The fin surfaces are exposed to convection and radiation to dissipate heat. A supervised machine learning method was used to study the heat transfer characteristics and temperature distribution in the annular fin. In particular, a feedback architecture with the BFGS Quasi-Newton training algorithm (trainbfg) was used to analyze the solutions of the mathematical model governing the problem. This approach allows an in-depth study of the performance of fins, taking into account various physical parameters that affect its performance. To ensure the accuracy of the obtained solutions, a comparative analysis was performed using guided machine learning. The results were compared with those obtained by conventional methods such as the homotopy perturbation method, the finite difference method, and the Runge–Kutta method. In addition, a thorough statistical analysis was performed to confirm the reliability of the solutions. The results of this study provide valuable information on the behavior and performance of annular fins made from functionally graded materials. These findings contribute to the design and optimization of heat transfer systems, enabling better heat management and efficient use of available space.
