Application of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for Calculations of Pressure–Concentration–Temperature (PCT) Diagrams in Hydrogen – Metal Hydride Systems

MATLAB Neural Network (NN) toolbox was used to obtain relations between pressure, temperature, and concentration in a metal hydride. In previous simulations of heat and mass transfer in metal hydride containers PCT calculations based on semi-empirical models and first principles models took significant time. The advantage of using NN to predict PCT curve instead of traditional models is the shorter computational time. The integration of MATLAB Neural Network Toolbox and COMSOL software allows to speed up simulations.
