Technical design tool for calculating VDU column geometry, separation stages, flash zone conditions, and product yields.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for designing Vacuum Distillation Units (VDU). It allows engineers to calculate critical column parameters such as diameter using calculate_column_geometry, determine required separation levels with estimate_separation_stages, and evaluate thermodynamic conditions via analyze_flash_zone. Additionally, users can predict mass distribution between VGO and vacuum residue using predict_product_yields. It is designed to help optimize vacuum distillation processes by managing residue rates, vacuum pressures, and product specifications.

Calculate the column diameter for a residue rate of 500 units, vacuum pressure of 10 mmHg, and vapor density of 0.05.

The calculated column diameter is 4.2 meters with a vapor velocity of 0.85 m/s.

What is the expected VGO yield for a residue rate of 1000, a cut point of 350, and vacuum pressure of 15?

The predicted VGO yield is 650 units and the vacuum residue yield is 350 units.

Analyze the flash zone for a feed temperature of 380, residue rate of 400, and vacuum pressure of 12.

The flash temperature is 375 degrees with a vaporization fraction of 0.42.

You can use the `calculate_column_geometry` tool by providing the residue rate, vacuum pressure, and vapor density.
