pp.241-249
Liquefied hydrogen is attracting attention as an energy source of the future due to its hydrogen storage rate and low risk. However, the disadvantage is that the unit price is high due to technical difficulties in production, transportation, and storage. This study was conducted to improve the design accuracy and development period of needle valves, which are important parts with a wide technical application range among liquefied hydrogen equipment. Since the needle valve must discharge an appropriate flow rate of the liquefied fluid, it is important to determine the needle valve design parameters suitable for the target flow rate. Computational Fluid Dynamics and Artificial Neural Network technology used to determine the design variables of fluid flow were applied to improve the setting and analysis time of the parameter. In addition, procedures and methods for applying the design parameter of needle valves to Convolutional Neural Networks were presented. The procedure and appropriate conditions for selecting parameters and functional conditions of the Convolutional Neural Network were presented, and the accuracy of predicting the flow coefficient according to the design parameter was secured 95%. It is judged that this method can be applied to other structures and machines.
