What friction methods does this MCP support?

The MCP supports both the Darcy-Weisbach and Hazen-Williams methods for calculating frictional pressure loss.

Can I use this for multiphase flow?

Yes, the capability is designed to handle both single-phase and multiphase flow scenarios.

Does it account for elevation changes?

Yes, the calculate_total_pressure_drop capability accounts for both frictional losses and gravitational effects.

Which AI clients can use this MCP?

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

How do I get the results?

Once connected, your agent performs the math and presents the results directly in your existing workspace.

Which calculation methods are supported?

The server supports the Darcy-Weisbach equation for general fluid types and the Hazen-Williams equation for water flow in pressure pipes.

How does elevation affect the pressure drop?

Using calculate_total_pressure_drop, the capability adds hydrostatic pressure changes to frictional losses. Uphill sections increase the required pressure, while downhill sections decrease it.

Can I calculate the power needed for a pump?

Yes, you can use calculate_pumping_power to find the required energy based on the total pressure drop, flow rate, and pump efficiency.

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 Pipeline Pressure Drop Calculator.

01
Calculate friction loss
This capability calculates the pressure drop caused specifically by friction against the pipe walls.
02
Calculate total pressure drop
Use this to find the net pressure change by combining frictional losses with gravitational effects.
03
Calculate pumping power
This capability determines the specific energy requirements needed to drive fluid through your system.
04
Get flow velocity
This capability calculates the speed at which fluid moves through a given pipe diameter.

Real work

What teams actually run

Pump Sizing

Determine the necessary pumping power to move a specific volume of fluid against a known pressure drop.

System Troubleshooting

Check if current flow velocities or pressure drops exceed design limits in an existing pipeline.

Pipeline Design

Calculate the total pressure change in a new line by combining friction and elevation data.

Fluid Velocity Checks

Verify that fluid speed stays within safe limits for a given pipe diameter and flow rate.

One connector, every AI

Pipeline Pressure Drop Calculator 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 Pipeline Pressure Drop Calculator 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.
