## Description

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for designing gravity separation circuits. Use `calculate_circuit_capacity` to determine the required number of units and footprint, `optimize_splitter_settings` to find the ideal radial position for mineral recovery, and `evaluate_flow_dynamics` to ensure stable slurry behavior. The toolset also includes `generate_design_summary` to aggregate all parameters into a final engineering specification.

## Tools

### calculate_circuit_capacity
Determines the total number of spiral units and the required physical footprint for a given production target

### evaluate_flow_dynamics
Simulates how the slurry will behave on the spiral surface to ensure stable operation

### generate_design_summary
Aggregates all calculated parameters into a final engineering specification for the circuit

### optimize_splitter_settings
Recommends the precise position of splitters to maximize mineral recovery while minimizing gangue entrapment

```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I determine the number of spiral units needed?**
You can use the `calculate_circuit_capacity` tool, providing the throughput, mineral density, and particle size distribution.

**Can I optimize the splitter position for specific minerals?**
Yes, the `optimize_splitter_settings` tool allows you to input particle size, mineral density, pulp density, and wash water flow to find the best position.

**How can I check if the slurry flow will be stable?**
Use the `evaluate_flow_dynamics` tool to simulate slurry behavior and receive a stability index and turbulence level.
