摘要

Artificial intelligence offers a powerful way to understand and predict the flow and thermal behavior of non-Newtonian fluids with greater accuracy and efficiency. This study presents a comprehensive AI-based numerical analysis of an Oldroyd-B nanofluid within a porous medium by incorporating the effects of entropy generation. The nanofluids consist of silver (Ag) and nickel zinc ferrite (NiZnFe2O4) nanoparticles dispersed in engine oil, which is the base fluid. The thermal convective boundary conditions as well as velocity slip significantly affect the fluid’s transport phenomena. The differential transform method (DTM) is employed to obtain approximate solutions, whereas a Bayesian regression neural network (BRNN) framework is utilized to perform the artificial intelligence-based predictive and comparative analysis. The artificial intelligence model is trained using the computed numerical data. This model describes the insights into the different governing parameters that influence the flow and thermal characteristics. An increase in nanoparticle volume fraction ϕ enhances the Nusselt number by nearly 18–30%, with the Ag/engine oil nanofluid consistently outperforming the NiZnFe2O4/engine oil nanofluid. The BRNN predictive model achieves regression values exceeding 0.99, indicating high accuracy. The outcomes of this research hold significant relevance for advancements in nanotechnology, thermal engineering, and materials science where efficient heat and fluid transport are of critical importance.
