Neuro and Fuzzy Computing Approach for the Flow Sensorless Measurement

An attempt to use differential pressure induced by control valve for flow measurement has been proposed. The flow rate obtained by NFM model is closer to the actual value with the maximum error being ± 3.28 %. In NNM model, the error is 92.2% in the lower flow and 4.39 % in the higher flow rate. The...
