## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for mineral processing engineers to design efficient gravity separation circuits. By inputting mineral density differences and particle size ranges, users can use `get_circuit_dimensions` to determine physical footprint, `calculate_pulsation_parameters` for optimal bed movement, `design_bed_configuration` for bed and ragging specifications, and `configure_hutch_water_flow` to stabilize the separation process.

## Tools

### calculate_pulsation_parameters
Determines the optimal frequency and stroke length for the jigging action

### configure_hutch_water_flow
Determines the amount of hutch water needed to stabilize the bed and control suction

### design_bed_configuration
Defines the thickness of the mineral bed and the necessary ragging layer

### get_circuit_dimensions
Calculates the physical footprint and required volume of the jig to handle a specific throughput

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the jig dimensions for a throughput of 500 m3/h with particle sizes between 0.5mm and 5mm.
```

**Response:** 
```
The jig requires a length of 4.5m, a width of 3.0m, a total surface area of 13.5m², and a required bed volume of 27.0m³.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What are the pulsation parameters for a density difference of 1.2 g/cm³ and particle sizes from 0.2mm to 2mm?
```

**Response:** 
```
The optimal pulsation frequency is 145 pulses per minute, with a stroke length of 12mm and a bed fluidization index of 0.85.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Design the bed configuration for a 2.0mm max particle size and 1.0 g/cm³ density difference at 300 m3/h throughput.
```

**Response:** 
```
The recommended bed depth is 0.45m, the ragging thickness should be 4.0mm, and the ragging material density should be 3.5 g/cm³.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What parameters are required for circuit dimensioning?**
To use `get_circuit_dimensions`, you must provide the target throughput, the minimum particle size, and the maximum particle size in the feed.

**How does the tool handle ragging selection?**
The `design_bed_configuration` tool calculates the necessary ragging thickness based on the largest particle size and recommends a suitable ragging material density.

**Can I calculate water requirements for the hutch?**
Yes, the `configure_hutch_water_flow` tool determines the required hutch water rate and suction control factor based on particle size and bed depth.
