# Gasoline Blend Calculator AI Agent Connect

> Gasoline Blend Calculator is a specialized engineering MCP that handles the math for gasoline blending. It accounts for non-linear blending behavior by applying interaction factors to RON, MON, and RVP. You can use it to check if a mixture meets regulatory limits or to see how a specific component changes the final octane or volatility of a stream.

## Description

You can use this MCP to handle the heavy lifting of petroleum blending math. Instead of relying on simple linear averages, this tool accounts for the non-linearity found in real-world gasoline streams by applying interaction factors to RON, MON, and RVP. It is built for engineers who need to move from raw component data to a finished specification without manual calculation errors.

Your AI client can use these tools to run quick checks on blend integrity or to perform deep dives into how a single additive or component shifts the final product. Whether you are verifying if a new blend hits its target AKI or checking RVP compliance, the math is handled within the MCP. It simplifies the process of moving from component lists to actionable blending decisions.

## Tools

### calculate_blend_properties
This tool calculates the primary performance and volatility characteristics for a complete gasoline blend.

### get_component_contribution
This tool evaluates how a specific component influences the final octane or volatility of the blend.

### validate_blend_inputs
This tool performs a preliminary check on raw component data to ensure integrity before running complex calculations.

### check_specification_compliance
This tool determines if a calculated blend meets your specific target requirements and regulatory limits.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the properties for a blend of 70% Component A (RON 95, MON 90, RVP 7) and 30% Component B (RON 90, MON 85, RVP 12) with interaction factors of 0.5 for RON, 0.2 for MON, and -1.0 for RVP.
```

**Response:** 
```
The calculated blend properties are: RON 92.5, MON 87.5, AKI 90.0, and RVP 8.1.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a blend with AKI 88, RON 92, MON 84, and RVP 9 compliant with limits of minAki: 87, maxRvp: 10?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the blend is compliant with all specified limits.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much does Component A contribute to the volatility of the blend?
```

**Response:** 
```
Component A contributes 0.7 to the total volatility contribution based on its fraction and RVP.
```

## Capabilities

### Non-linear Blending
The MCP applies interaction factors to account for non-linear behavior in RON, MON, and RVP.

### Compliance Checking
Your agent can verify if a blend stays within specific regulatory or target limits.

### Component Analysis
The tool identifies the specific influence of individual components on the final mixture.

### Data Validation
It runs integrity checks on raw component data to prevent errors in downstream calculations.

## Use Cases

### Regulatory Compliance
Check if a proposed gasoline blend meets specific AKI or RVP limits before production.

### Component Impact Analysis
Determine how adding a specific component will shift the final octane rating.

### Blend Optimization
Use interaction factors to predict the real-world performance of a mixture.

### Data Integrity Checks
Verify that component input data is valid before running expensive calculations.

## Benefits

- Accounts for interaction factors to handle non-linear blending math.
- Reduces calculation errors by validating raw component data first.
- Provides direct feedback on whether blends meet target specifications.
- Isolates the impact of individual components on final octane and volatility.

## How It Works

You connect the MCP to your AI client and start providing blending data.

1. Connect your preferred MCP-compatible client to Vinkius.
2. Provide component data and interaction factors to your AI agent.
3. The agent uses the MCP tools to run the math and validation.
4. Receive precise property results or compliance confirmations immediately.
