Application of machine learning to develop a real-time air-cooled condenser monitoring platform using thermofluid simulation data

Energy and AI, 2021
A data-driven surrogate model is proposed for a 64-cell air-cooled condenser system at a power plant. The surrogate model was developed using thermofluid simulation data from an existing detailed 1-D thermofluid network simulation model.
