## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools to calculate volatile organic compound (VOC) losses from liquid storage tanks. It models the interaction between product volatility and the physical environment to determine standing losses, working losses, and total annual losses. Use `get_product_volatility_profile` to retrieve vapor pressure data, `calculate_standing_losses` for idle tank losses, and `calculate_working_losses` for operational turnover losses.

## Tools

### get_product_volatility_profile
Get the characteristic vapor behavior of a specific product

### calculate_standing_losses
Calculate standing losses for a storage tank

### calculate_total_annual_loss
Calculate the total expected annual volume of product lost

### calculate_working_losses
Calculate working losses for a storage tank

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the vapor pressure profile for Gasoline?
```

**Response:** 
```
Gasoline has a reference vapor pressure of 45.0 kPa and is classified as High volatility.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the standing losses for a fixed roof tank with a 10m diameter, 15m height, 45 kPa vapor pressure, 25°C temperature, and 5 m/s wind speed.
```

**Response:** 
```
The calculated standing loss volume is 124.5 cubic meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What would be the total annual loss if standing losses are 500 units and working losses are 1200 units, with an environmental factor of 1.2?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total expected annual loss is 2040.0 units.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What is the difference between standing and working losses?**
Standing losses occur when the tank is idle due to thermal breathing and filling displacement. Working losses occur during the operational cycle of filling and emptying the tank.

**How do I find the vapor pressure for my stored product?**
You can use the `get_product_volatility_profile` tool to retrieve the reference vapor pressure and volatility class for common industrial products.

**Does the tool account for weather conditions?**
Yes, the `calculate_standing_losses` tool specifically includes parameters for average temperature and wind speed to ensure accurate modeling.
