## Description

This MCP server provides essential engineering tools for industrial safety. It allows AI agents to determine precise air volume requirements to maintain safe chemical concentrations in work environments. Using tools like `calculate_exhaust_flow`, `calculate_room_volume`, `calculate_make_up_air`, and `get_ventilation_summary`, agents can calculate air changes per hour, exhaust flow rates, and necessary make-up air while accounting for mixing factors.

## Tools

### calculate_exhaust_flow
Determines the volume of air that must be exhausted to dilute a specific chemical emission to a safe level

### calculate_make_up_air
Determines the amount of fresh air required to replace exhausted air

### calculate_room_volume
Calculates the total cubic capacity of a work area

### get_ventilation_summary
Provides a comprehensive overview of all required ventilation parameters for a specific scenario

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the ventilation requirements for a room 10m x 10m x 3m with a chemical emission rate of 5 units/hr, a target concentration of 0.01, and a mixing factor of 0.7.
```

**Response:** 
```
For a 300m³ room, the required exhaust flow rate is 3500 units/hr, resulting in 11.67 air changes per hour, with a required make-up air rate of 3500 units/hr.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the volume of a workspace that is 5 meters long, 4 meters wide, and 2.5 meters high?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total volume of the workspace is 50 cubic meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I need to know the make-up air for an exhaust flow of 1200 m3/h with a pressure offset of 5.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required make-up air rate is 1205 m3/h.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the mixing factor affect calculations?**
The mixing factor represents air distribution efficiency. A lower factor indicates imperfect mixing, which requires a higher exhaust flow rate to achieve the same target concentration.

**Can I get a full report of all ventilation needs at once?**
Yes, you can use the `get_ventilation_summary` tool to receive a complete overview including volume, exhaust flow, air changes, and make-up air in a single call.

**What is the purpose of the make-up air calculation?**
The `calculate_make_up_air` tool ensures that the fresh air introduced into a space matches or compensates for the exhausted air, maintaining proper pressure balance.
