Assessment of a Neural-Network-Based Optimization Tool: A Low Specific-Speed Impeller Application

This work provides a detailed description of the fluid dynamic design of a low specific-speed industrial pump centrifugal impeller. The main goal is to guarantee a certain value of the specific-speed number at the design flow rate, while satisfying geometrical constraints and industrial feasibility....
