Applying ANFIS-PSO algorithm as a novel accurate approach for prediction of gas density

摘要

The accurate estimations of processes in gas engineering need a high degree of accuracy in calculations of gas properties. One of these properties is gas density which is straightly affected by pressure and temperature. In the present work, the Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) algorithm joined with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to estimate gas density in terms of pressure, temperature, molecular weight, critical pressure and critical temperature of gas. In order to training and testing of ANFIS-PSO algorithm a total number of 1240 experimental data were extracted from the literature. The statistical parameters, Root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination (R-2) and average absolute relative deviation (AARD) were determined for overall process as 0.14, 1 and 0.039 respectively. The determined statistical parameters and graphical comparisons expressed that predicting mode is a robust and accurate model for prediction of gas density. Also the predicting model was compared with three correlations and obtained results showed the better performance of the proposed model respect to the others.
