## Description

This MCP server provides tools to model how wind speed changes with altitude. It uses logarithmic wind profiles to help users determine wind speeds at specific operational heights, estimate power gains for kite systems, and calculate gust factors for safety. Use `calculate_wind_speed_at_height` to find speeds at target altitudes, `calculate_power_gain_percentage` to see how much more power is available higher up, and `calculate_gust_factor` to prepare for peak wind speeds.

## Tools

### calculate_gust_factor
Calculates a multiplier to estimate peak wind speeds for safety and structural loading

### calculate_power_gain_percentage
Estimates the increase in available wind power when moving from the reference height to the kite height

### calculate_wind_speed_at_height
Determines the expected wind speed at a specific operational altitude

### get_roughness_lookup
Provides standard surface roughness values based on the environment and terrain type

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the wind speed at 100m if the speed at 10m is 5 m/s, roughness is 0.03, stability is neutral, and it is onshore?
```

**Response:** 
```
The wind speed at 100m is 7.24 m/s.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much more power will I get at 150m compared to 10m if the wind speed increases from 5 m/s to 8 m/s?
```

**Response:** 
```
The power gain is 474.4%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the peak wind speed if the target wind speed is 6 m/s in an unstable onshore environment?
```

**Response:** 
```
The peak wind speed is 9.0 m/s with a gust factor of 1.5.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate wind speed at a specific height?**
You can use the `calculate_wind_speed_at_height` tool. Provide the base wind speed, the reference height, the target height, the surface roughness, the stability class, and the environment type.

**Can I estimate power increases for kite flying?**
Yes, use `calculate_power_gain_percentage` after determining the wind speed at your target height to see the percentage increase in available power.

**How do I account for sudden wind gusts?**
Use the `calculate_gust_factor` tool to get a multiplier and the estimated peak wind speed based on the atmospheric stability and environment.
