A Regularized Real-Time Integrator for Data-Driven Control of Heating Channels

In many contexts of scientific computing and engineering science, phenomena are monitored over time and data are collected as time-series. Plenty of algorithms have been proposed in the field of time-series data mining, many of them based on deep learning techniques. High-fidelity simulations of complex scenarios are truly computationally expensive and a real-time monitoring and control could be efficiently achieved by the use of artificial intelligence. In this work we build accurate data-driven models of a two-phase transient flow in a heated channel, as usually encountered in heat exchangers. The proposed methods combine several artificial neural networks architectures, involving standard and transposed deep convolutions. In particular, a very accurate real-time integrator of the system has been developed.
