Abstract

In the present work, we present the design of a program in Visual Studio 2005 implementing the Monte Carlo Annealing Method (MCA), to minimize the functional of the Helmholtz energy to study the Isotropic-Nematic phase transition. The program was made in Visual Studio 2005 using the C# programming language, this because it is an object-oriented language, easy interaction with databases, multiple mathematical functions and facilitates the creation of graphs, with this, it was possible to clearly observe the results produced by the program. In addition, by using C# it allows the application to be mounted on a server or Workstation, so that the program can be downloaded from the internet and, in addition, can be updated in real time. In this same context, Microsoft Access was used as the database manager.
