## Description

This MCP server provides essential engineering tools for fluid transport system design. It allows AI agents to calculate the exact operating point where a pump meets system resistance using `pump_calculate_operating_point`. Engineers can determine electrical and mechanical requirements via `pump_calculate_power_requirements`, evaluate safety against cavitation using `pump_check_cavitation_risk`, and predict performance changes under different hardware configurations with `pump_apply_affinity_laws`.

## Tools

### pump_apply_affinity_laws
Predict how changing the pump hardware (impeller size) or speed will impact performance

### pump_calculate_operating_point
Determine the specific operating conditions where the pump performance meets the system resistance

### pump_calculate_power_requirements
Determine the electrical and mechanical power needed to drive the pump at a specific operating point

### pump_check_cavitation_risk
Evaluate if the current system configuration will cause cavitation damage

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the power required for a pump with 50 m3/h flow, 30m head, fluid density of 1000 kg/m3, and 75% efficiency.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required power is 4.31 kW (5.78 HP) with a shaft torque of 145.2 Nm.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is it safe to run a pump with 5m NPSH available and 4.5m NPSH required, assuming a 0.5m safety margin?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, the system is not safe. The available margin is 0.5m, which does not exceed the required safety margin.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
If I increase the impeller diameter by 10%, what happens to the flow and head?
```

**Response:** 
```
With a diameter ratio of 1.1, the predicted flow increases by 10% and the head increases by 21%.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I find the operating point of my pump?**
You can use the `pump_calculate_operating_point` tool by providing the target flow rate and the JSON-formatted system and pump curves.

**Can this tool help prevent pump damage?**
Yes, the `pump_check_cavitation_risk` tool evaluates the margin between available and required NPSH to ensure the system operates safely without cavitation.

**How do I calculate the power needed for a specific flow?**
Use the `pump_calculate_power_requirements` tool with the operating flow, head, fluid density, and pump efficiency to get brake horsepower and kilowatts.
