What can this MCP calculate for cooling towers?

It calculates physical dimensions, air flow requirements, water balance, and thermal efficiency metrics.

How does it handle water balance?

The MCP uses evaporation and blowdown rates to estimate the total makeup water and system losses.

Can I check if my cooling design is physically possible?

Yes, you can use the validation capability to see if your temperature profile meets hardware and environmental constraints.

Which AI clients can use this MCP?

You can use this with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

Do I need to host the MCP myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP so it is ready to use as soon as you connect.

How do I determine the physical size of my tower?

You can use the calculate_tower_dimensions capability by providing the heat load, wet bulb temperature, approach temperature, and circulation rate.

Can I check if my cooling target is realistic?

Yes, the validate_cooling_constraints capability allows you to verify if a target water temperature is feasible given the ambient wet bulb temperature and hardware limits.

How much makeup water will I need?

Use the estimate_water_balance capability with your evaporation and blowdown rates to find the total required makeup water.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Cooling Tower Sizing.

01
Estimate water balance
This capability calculates the water balance for your cooling tower system. It determines necessary makeup water and total system losses.
02
Calculate tower dimensions
This capability determines the physical size and air flow requirements for a tower. It uses heat load and wet bulb temperature to find the right dimensions.
03
Validate cooling constraints
This capability checks if a specific temperature profile is physically possible. It ensures your cooling targets meet hardware and environmental constraints.
04
Get tower efficiency metrics
This capability provides thermal effectiveness data. It calculates specific efficiency metrics for your cooling tower design.

Real work

What teams actually run

New System Design

Determine the required tower size and air flow for a specific heat load.

Feasibility Studies

Check if a target water temperature can be reached given the ambient wet bulb temperature.

Water Budgeting

Calculate the total makeup water needed based on evaporation and blowdown rates.

Performance Audits

Evaluate the thermal effectiveness of an existing or proposed tower design.

One connector, every AI

Cooling Tower Sizing works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Cooling Tower Sizing to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Cooling Tower Sizing, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Cooling Tower Sizing. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
