In this study, we have investigated the stellar evolution models using the open-source software instrument Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics. We examine the evolution of angular momentum and the stability of mass transfer in the evolution of Algol-type binaries through the inner Lagrangian point via the Roche lobe overflow. Also, we have determined the ongoing challenge of chemical mixing and exhibit improvements that make easier the simulation of Algol-type binaries evolution.
