## Description

This MCP server provides tools to calculate the aerodynamic wind shadow and wind speed reduction caused by physical obstacles. Using boundary layer separation principles, it allows AI agents to determine the physical extent of a shadow, identify recovery zones where wind speed stabilizes, and map attenuation profiles along a continuous path. You can use `get_shadow_metrics` to find specific reduction percentages at a distance, `get_recovery_zone_details` to locate the stabilization point, `get_wind_attenuation_profile` for continuous mapping, and `get_effective_obstacle_geometry` to account for wind angle and obstacle shape.

## Tools

### get_effective_obstacle_geometry
Calculate how the wind angle and shape combine to change the obstacle footprint

### get_recovery_zone_details
Identify the distance and characteristics of the area where wind speed stabilizes

### get_shadow_metrics
Determine the physical extent and intensity of the wind shadow at a specific point

### get_wind_attenuation_profile
Map the reduction of wind speed across a continuous path downwind

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the wind reduction at 10 meters behind a 5m high sharp obstacle with 15m/s wind?
```

**Response:** 
```
At 10 meters downwind of the 5m high sharp obstacle, the wind speed is reduced by 42%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How far does the wind need to travel to recover after hitting a 2m wide rounded obstacle?
```

**Response:** 
```
The wind speed reaches 95% of its ambient level at a distance of 12.5 meters from the obstacle.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the effective width of a 10m wide flat obstacle if the wind hits at a 30 degree angle.
```

**Response:** 
```
The effective width of the obstacle for a 30-degree wind approach is 8.66 meters.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does obstacle shape affect the wind shadow?**
The shape determines how the airflow separates from the surface. Sharp shapes cause more aggressive separation and larger shadows, while rounded shapes result in smaller shadows and lower drag.

**Can I calculate the wind speed at a specific distance behind an object?**
Yes, you can use the `get_shadow_metrics` tool to determine the wind reduction percentage at any specific distance downwind from the obstacle.

**What is a recovery zone?**
A recovery zone is the area downwind where the wind speed gradually returns to its original ambient levels after passing the obstacle.
