Stability analysis of MHD Jeffery–Hamel flow using artificial neural network

The current research explores the useful impact of artificial neural networks (ANN) back-propagation along Levenberg-Marquardt Method (ANN-BLMM), for findng the influence of dimensionless numbers on the flow distribution pertaining magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) Jeffery–Hamel fluid amid two plates which are enclined at angles 2α. We have employed a numerical approach, ANN-BLMM to assess various aspects of our data, including testing, training, validation, Mean Square Errors (MSE), performance, and fitting. The methodology being used has been tested and validated through comparison with other results obtain numerically, showing extreme level of accuracy. Moreover, we have confirmed our findings through error histograms and regression tests. We used OHAM [36] for the data set. Furthermore, we have also explored the influence of Reynolds number (R) on both flow and pressure distribution, visually representing our findings through graphical analysis. We have discussed about the nature and variations of velocity profiles within MHD Jefery–Hamel flow (MHDJHF), taking into account various values of Ha and Re in both convergent and divergent channels. It was discovered that a significant stabilizing influence of an increase in the magnetic field intensity was observed for both diverging and converging channel geometries and as the Hartman numbers rise, so does the fluid velocity. The absolute error is reduced to 10-2 to 10-6.
