Interference (press and shrink) fit engineering maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically from the Lamé thick-wall equations — the contact-pressure, holding-capacity and assembly-temperature numbers a mechanical designer or machinist sizes a shaft-and-hub joint with. The pressure endpoint gives the contact pressure that builds at the interface from the diametral interference, the shaft and hub diameters and the elastic modulus, plus the tensile hoop stress at the hub bore — the highest stress in the joint, which a thin hub can split if it exceeds the yield: a 50 mm solid steel shaft in a 100 mm hub with 0.05 mm interference makes about 75 MPa of contact pressure and 125 MPa of bore hoop stress, and doubling the interference doubles the pressure. The holding endpoint turns that pressure into the axial push-out force and the transmissible torque through the friction at the interface (force = pressure × contact area × friction, torque = force × shaft radius), the figures that decide whether the joint slips under load. The assembly-temperature endpoint gives the heating (hub) or cooling (shaft) temperature change for a shrink fit — ΔT = (interference + clearance) ÷ (α × diameter) — so the part slides on freely and grips as it returns to temperature. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for mechanical-design and machine-building tools, manufacturing and CAD utilities, and engineering calculators. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Same-material Lamé estimates — verify against the material yield with a safety factor. 3 compute endpoints. For thin-wall pressure-vessel stress use a pressure-vessel API.

HVAC Air-Side Load API

HVAC air-side heat maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically with the classic standard-air factors — the sensible, latent and airflow numbers a mechanical engineer or HVAC technician sizes ducts and equipment with. The sensible endpoint gives the sensible heat an airflow carries to change temperature: Qs = 1.08 × CFM × ΔT (dry-bulb difference), where the 1.08 bundles standard-air density and specific heat — 2,000 CFM across a 20 °F difference is 43,200 BTU/hr, 3.6 tons — with the result in BTU/hr, tons and kW. The latent endpoint gives the latent (moisture) heat: Ql = 0.68 × CFM × ΔW, where ΔW is the humidity-ratio difference in grains of water per pound of dry air, the dehumidification part of a cooling load that runs high in humid climates and from people and cooking, and why air conditioners are sized on total, not just temperature. The airflow endpoint inverts the sensible relation: CFM = sensible load ÷ (1.08 × ΔT), the supply air needed at a chosen supply-to-room temperature difference (comfort cooling runs ~18–22 °F below room), the number that sets fan and duct size — sanity-checked against ~400 CFM per ton. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for HVAC-design and load-calc tools, mechanical-estimating and commissioning utilities, and building-engineering apps. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Standard-air factors — adjust for altitude. 3 compute endpoints. For room rule-of-thumb sizing use an HVAC API; for moist-air properties a psychrometric API; for duct sizing a ductwork API.

Worm Gear API

Worm-gear engineering maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the ratio, lead-angle and efficiency numbers a machine designer or millwright sizes a worm drive with. The ratio endpoint gives the reduction = wheel teeth ÷ worm starts, so a single-start worm on a 40-tooth wheel is a big 40:1 reduction in one compact stage — the high ratio in a small package is the whole appeal of a worm drive. The geometry endpoint gives the lead (= starts × axial pitch, with axial pitch = π × module) and the lead angle = atan(lead ÷ (π × worm pitch diameter)), and tests for self-locking: a small lead angle (roughly under 5–6° for typical steel-on-bronze) means the wheel cannot back-drive the worm — invaluable for hoists and holding loads, at the cost of efficiency. The efficiency endpoint gives the mesh efficiency when the worm drives = tan(lead angle) ÷ tan(lead angle + friction angle), which is low for the small lead angles that give big ratios — often 50–70 %, which is why worm gears run warm and need good lubrication — while high-lead multi-start worms reach 90 %+; when the lead angle drops to the friction angle the drive becomes self-locking. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for mechanical-design and gearbox tools, machine-building and CAD utilities, and engineering calculators. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Confirm self-locking dynamically — vibration can unlock a marginal pair. 3 compute endpoints. For spur gears use a spur-gear API; for a general ratio a gear-ratio API.

Hydraulic Cylinder API

Hydraulic-cylinder engineering maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the force, speed and oil-volume numbers a fluid-power designer, machine builder or hydraulics technician sizes a cylinder with. The force endpoint gives the push and pull from the bore, rod diameter and working pressure: extending, the oil acts on the full bore area, so the cylinder is strongest pushing out; retracting, it acts only on the annulus left by the rod, giving less force — a 100 mm bore with a 56 mm rod at 160 bar pushes about 125.7 kN out but pulls only 86.3 kN back, which is why a press or an excavator does its hard work on the extend stroke. The speed endpoint gives the piston speed from the pump flow (speed = flow ÷ area), so extending is the slower stroke and retracting the faster, the trade-off every circuit designer balances against force. The volume endpoint gives the swept oil volume per stroke for extend and retract, the rod displacement and the bore-to-annulus area ratio — the differential (regeneration) ratio used to speed the extend stroke in a regen circuit — so the pump, tank and lines can be sized for the larger volume. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for fluid-power and machine-design tools, hydraulics-sizing calculators, mobile- and industrial-equipment utilities, and engineering apps. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Ideal-area estimates — allow for friction, back-pressure and efficiency. 3 compute endpoints. For Pascal force-multiplication use a hydraulics API; for valve sizing a valve-flow (Cv/Kv) API.

Pipe Insulation API

Pipe-insulation heat-loss maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the radial heat loss, thickness and energy-cost numbers a mechanical engineer or energy auditor sizes lagging with. The heat-loss endpoint gives the loss per linear foot through cylindrical insulation, Q/L = 2π·(k/12)·ΔT ÷ ln(r2/r1), where k is the insulation conductivity (BTU·in/hr·ft²·°F, ~0.25 for fibreglass), r1 the pipe radius and r2 the outer radius — a 2-inch line at 300 °F with one inch of fibreglass loses about 43 BTU/hr per foot, and because the relationship is logarithmic, doubling the thickness does not halve the loss. The thickness endpoint inverts it for a target loss: ln(r2/r1) = 2π·(k/12)·ΔT ÷ target, then thickness = r2 − r1, showing the economic-thickness point beyond which more material rarely pays. The annual-cost endpoint turns loss per foot into the yearly heat lost and fuel cost over a run of pipe, the number that justifies the lagging. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for mechanical-design and energy-audit apps, insulation-contractor and process-piping tools, building-services calculators, and engineering aids. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Ignores the outer air film (real loss slightly lower). For flat walls and roofs use a U-value API.
