## Description

This MCP server provides specialized thermal calculation tools for deep mining operations. It accounts for geological heat from the rock mass, mechanical heat from equipment, and atmospheric heat from auto-compression. Use `calculate_total_heat_load` to determine the cumulative thermal energy, `determine_refrigeration_capacity` to size refrigeration plants, `optimize_cooling_distribution` to plan resource allocation across mine levels, and `validate_thermal_safety` to verify if current cooling setups meet safety requirements.

## Tools

### validate_thermal_safety
Verifies if the current cooling setup is sufficient to maintain the target temperature

### calculate_total_heat_load
Determines the cumulative thermal energy that must be removed from the mine environment

### determine_refrigeration_capacity
Calculates the necessary size of the refrigeration plant to handle the heat load

### optimize_cooling_distribution
Suggests how to distribute cooling resources across different mine levels or zones

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the total heat load for a mine with 40C VRT, 500kW equipment heat, 1000m depth, and 50m3/s air flow, targeting 28C?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total heat load for these parameters is 1250 kW, consisting of 450 kW from rock heat, 500 kW from equipment, and 300 kW from auto-compression.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the required refrigeration capacity for a 1500 kW heat load with a 20% safety margin.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required capacity is 1500 kW, with a safety margin of 300 kW, resulting in a final design capacity of 1800 kW.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is my current cooling setup safe? I have 1000 kW of cooling, a predicted heat load of 950 kW, a target of 28C, and the ambient temperature is 27C.
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the setup is safe. The temperature margin is 1.0°C and the risk level is LOW.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the total heat load?**
You can use the `calculate_total_heat_load` tool by providing the virgin rock temperature, equipment heat, mine depth, air flow rate, and target temperature.

**Can I include a safety margin in my capacity planning?**
Yes, the `determine_refrigeration_capacity` tool allows you to provide an optional safety factor to account for unexpected thermal surges.

**How does the server handle cooling distribution?**
The `optimize_cooling_distribution` tool allocates available capacity to different mine levels based on their specific heat loads and priority weights.
