## Description

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for designing industrial centrifugation systems. It uses Stokes' law and centrifugal acceleration to calculate critical parameters for particle separation. Engineers can use `get_separation_velocity` to determine terminal settling speeds, `calculate_required_g_force` to find the necessary acceleration for specific timeframes, and `size_centrifuge_system` to estimate equipment capacity for both disc-stack and tubular architectures. Additionally, `validate_separation_feasibility` allows for quick verification of separation conditions based on fluid viscosity and density differences.

## Tools

### calculate_required_g_force
Calculates the minimum centrifugal acceleration needed to achieve separation within a specific timeframe

### get_separation_velocity
Determines the terminal settling velocity of a single particle within the fluid

### size_centrifuge_system
Estimates the physical dimensions or capacity requirements for a centrifuge

### validate_separation_feasibility
A quick check to see if a specific set of conditions will permit any separation at all

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How fast will a 50-micrometer particle settle in a fluid with 0.001 Pa·s viscosity and a density difference of 500 kg/m^3 at 10,000 m/s^2?
```

**Response:** 
```
The terminal settling velocity for the particle is 0.00025 m/s.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What G-force is needed to settle a 100-micrometer particle with a 200 kg/m^3 density delta in 10 seconds, given a viscosity of 0.002 Pa·s?
```

**Response:** 
```
The required centrifugal acceleration is 15,625 m/s^2.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Estimate the size for a disc-stack centrifuge processing 5 m^3/h with a 20-micrometer particle and 100 kg/m^3 density difference (viscosity 0.001 Pa·s).
```

**Response:** 
```
The required volume is 0.45 m^3 with an estimated residence time of 32.4 seconds using a disc-stack design.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What types of centrifuge architectures are supported?**
The system supports design calculations for both disc-stack and tubular centrifuge architectures.

**How do I know if my separation process is possible?**
You can use the `validate_separation_feasibility` tool to check if the available G-force is sufficient given the particle diameter, density difference, and fluid viscosity.

**Can I calculate the required equipment size?**
Yes, the `size_centrifuge_system` tool estimates required volume and residence time based on your desired throughput and particle properties.
