By the use of linear correlations between the API surface reaction and diffusion rate constants with the temperature and stirring speed, the dissolution profiles of the selected APIs could be predicted as function of temperature and stirring speed with high accuracy compared to the experimental data.
Using first principles calculations, free energies due to changing OH coverage in the oxygen reduction reaction were predicted as functions of electrode potential and local surface structure.
Characteristic parameters such as axial dispersion coefficients, retardation factors, and distribution coefficients were predicted as functions of inlet ion metal concentration, time, flow rate, bed density, cross-sectional column area, and bed length.
The effects of heat transfer, liquid phase diffusion and effusion at the surface on the rate processes are elucidated, and separation efficiencies are predicted as functions of the length of the heated wall over which the film flows.
The polymer melting rate, the thickness of the melt layer, and the fraction of melted fuel that is burned in the gas-phase are predicted as functions of the ambient conditions and polymer property values.
Classical PLSR metamodels, where the model outputs are predicted as functions of the input parameters, are useful for sensitivity analysis and analysis of interactions between input parameters and covariance patterns between multiple model outputs [ 29].
The coefficient of mass transfer oxygen is related to the viscosity, superficial speed of air, specific power, and oxygen-vector volumetric fraction (being predicted as function of these parameters) using stacked neural networks.
The current-voltage output characteristics of the solar modules have been predicted as function of the solar irradiation using the five parameter, single diode model of a solar panel and they have been linked to the production rates of hydrogen.
Knowing the transfer functions, the collector outlet temperature can be predicted as a function of the input variables (solar irradiance, inlet temperature, environment temperature), furthermore, collector control can be effectively designed based on the well-tried methods of control engineering.
Using this analysis it is shown that water permeability for both films and for both types of tests can be predicted as a function of the film thickness.
