Methods of data mining for modelling of low-pressure heat treatment

This paper addresses the methods of the modeling of thermal and thermochemical processes used in computer-aided design, optimization and control of processes of thermal and thermochemical treatment in terms of obtaining real-time results of the calculations, which allows for observation of how an item changes during its treatment to respond immediately and to determine the parameters of a corrective process should any irregularities be detected. The principal objective of the literature review was to develop a methodology for designing functional and effective processes for low-pressure thermal and thermochemical treatments using effective computation methods.
