PyThermoAI is an intelligent Python package that revolutionizes thermodynamic data acquisition and processing by leveraging advanced AI agents and web search capabilities. This powerful tool seamlessly integrates thermodynamic data retrieval, equation solving, and database management into a unified platform.
Built with LangGraph for creating sophisticated multi-agent workflows, PyThermoAI employs intelligent agents that can reason, plan, and execute complex thermodynamic tasks. The system utilizes Tavily as its primary web search engine, enabling agents to efficiently discover and retrieve thermodynamic data from authoritative online sources.
- π€ AI-Powered Data Agents: Intelligent agents that automatically search and retrieve thermodynamic properties from authoritative sources (NIST, DIPPR, peer-reviewed literature)
- πΎ Database Integration: Direct connection with PyThermoDB for data storage and management, with automatic conversion of retrieved thermodynamic data into the valid PyThermoDB format
PyThermoAI consists of several interconnected components:
- Data Agent: Searches and validates thermodynamic properties
- Equations Agent: Solves complex thermodynamic equations
- MCP Manager: Handles Model Context Protocol integrations allows using multiple MCP servers for enhanced functionality
Install PyThermoAI using pip:
pip install pythermoai
- Python 3.13+
- API keys for LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.)
- Tavily API key for enhanced web search capabilities
