Presentation of software functionality for the choosing the optimal mode of heat treatment of PdNi5 alloy

This article introduces custom software created to meet requirements for intricate processes by the use of the simplex algorithm and explores its potential for the application. The software was created using the Delphi Integrated Development Environment and the Delphi coding language, which is the latest, most complete, and comprehensive variant of the Object Pascal programming language, specifically for MS Windows operating systems from Vista and onwards. The objective was to determine the optimal heat treatment conditions for the PdNi5 alloy using our proprietary software, which utilizes a validated and effective simplex method. The findings were visualized using a simplex triangle, enabling the monitoring of the lawfulness of the test process's behavior regarding the influencing parameters. Mathematical model was tested and confirmed by statistical analysis.
