#pressure

Vacuum-technology maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the pump-down, boiling and pressure numbers a lab tech, process engineer or vacuum hobbyist works to. The pumpdown endpoint gives the ideal time to evacuate a chamber, t = (volume ÷ pump speed) × ln(start ÷ target pressure) — a 10-litre chamber on a 5 L/s pump drops from 1000 to 1 mbar in about 14 seconds in theory, though outgassing and falling pump speed stretch the real low-pressure stage. The boiling-point endpoint gives the temperature water boils at under reduced pressure from the Antoine equation: about 100 °C at sea level, but only ~52 °C at 100 mbar and ~46 °C at 100 mbar — the physics behind vacuum degassing, freeze-drying and high-altitude cooking. The level endpoint converts a pressure across the common vacuum units (mbar, Torr/mmHg, Pa, kPa, inHg, atm, psi), reports the percent vacuum relative to atmosphere, and names the regime — rough, medium, high or ultra-high vacuum — so you know which pump and gauge the job needs. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for vacuum-lab and process apps, pump-sizing and degassing tools, semiconductor and coating calculators, and physics teaching. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Ideal estimates — real systems are slowed by outgassing and leaks.

Fluid-statics maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The pressure endpoint computes the pressure at a depth in a fluid — the gauge pressure ρ·g·h and the absolute pressure (gauge plus atmospheric) — in pascals, kilopascals, bar, psi and atmospheres, for water, seawater, oil, mercury and more, or a custom density; depths accept metres, feet or centimetres, which makes it handy for diving (about 10 m of seawater adds one atmosphere). The force endpoint computes the resultant hydrostatic force on a submerged vertical rectangular surface — an aquarium wall, a tank side, a dam face or a flood gate — as F = ρ·g·h_c·A from its width and the top and bottom depths, and gives the depth of the centre of pressure, which sits below the centroid. The buoyancy endpoint applies Archimedes' principle, F_b = ρ_fluid·g·V, to give the buoyant force and the displaced mass, and — if you supply the object's density or mass — tells you whether it floats or sinks and what fraction sits below the waterline. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for civil and marine engineering tools, diving and aquarium apps, tank and dam design, and physics education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is fluid statics; for pump power and head use a pump API and for pipe flow rate use a pipe-flow API.
