Design of drain tube with cone to prevent frost accumulation of drainage hole in household refrigerators using artificial neural network by Suhwan Lee, Dongkuk Kang, Jinxing Fan, Sunghee Kang, Dong Kim, Eunseop Yeom

“…The optimal cone-type design, predicted with a 5.12 % error margin, was fabricated via 3D printing and validated experimentally through pressure and flow rate measurements. When applied in a commercial refrigerator, the cone-type tube delayed frost blockage by more than twice and reduced negative pressure peaks caused by door opening by approximately 85 % compared to conventional designs. …”
