# Story 10.3: BrineSource and BrineSink

Status: done

## Story

As a thermodynamic engineer,
I want dedicated `BrineSource` and `BrineSink` components that natively support glycol concentration,
So that I can model water-glycol heat transfer circuits with precise concentration specification.

## Acceptance Criteria

1. **Given** the new `Concentration` type from Story 10-1
   **When** I create a `BrineSource`
   **Then** I can specify the brine state via (Pressure, Temperature, Concentration)

2. **BrineSource** imposes fixed thermodynamic state on outlet edge:
   - Constructor: `BrineSource::new(fluid, p_set, t_set, concentration, backend, outlet)`
   - Uses `Concentration` type for type-safe glycol fraction specification
   - Internal conversion: (P, T, concentration) → enthalpy via FluidBackend
   - 2 equations: `P_edge - P_set = 0`, `h_edge - h_set = 0`

3. **BrineSink** imposes back-pressure (optional temperature/concentration):
   - Constructor: `BrineSink::new(fluid, p_back, t_opt, concentration_opt, backend, inlet)`
   - Optional temperature/concentration: `None` = free enthalpy (1 equation)
   - With temperature (requires concentration): 2 equations
   - Methods: `set_temperature()`, `clear_temperature()` for dynamic toggle

4. **Given** a brine with 30% glycol concentration
   **When** creating BrineSource
   **Then** the enthalpy accounts for glycol mixture properties

5. **Given** a brine with 50% glycol concentration (typical for low-temp applications)
   **When** creating BrineSource
   **Then** the enthalpy is computed for the correct mixture

6. Fluid validation: only accept incompressible brine fluids (Water, MEG, PEG, Glycol mixtures), reject refrigerants
7. Implements `Component` trait (object-safe, `Box<dyn Component>`)
8. All methods return `Result<T, ComponentError>` (Zero-Panic Policy)
9. Unit tests cover: concentration variations, boundary cases, invalid fluids, optional temperature toggle
10. Documentation with examples and LaTeX equations

## Dev Notes

### Architecture Patterns (MUST follow)

From `architecture.md`:

1. **NewType Pattern**: Use `Concentration` from Story 10-1, NEVER bare `f64` for concentration
2. **Zero-Panic Policy**: All methods return `Result<T, ComponentError>`
3. **Component Trait**: Must implement all trait methods identically to existing components
4. **Tracing**: Use `tracing` for logging, NEVER `println!` (if available in project)

### Existing Pattern Reference (MUST follow)

This implementation follows the **exact pattern** from `RefrigerantSource`/`RefrigerantSink` in `crates/components/src/refrigerant_boundary.rs`.

**Key differences from RefrigerantSource:**
| Aspect | RefrigerantSource | BrineSource |
|--------|-------------------|-------------|
| State spec | (P, VaporQuality) | (P, T, Concentration) |
| Fluid validation | `!is_incompressible()` | `is_incompressible()` |
| FluidBackend state | `FluidState::PressureQuality` | `FluidState::PressureTemperature` |
| Equation count | 2 (always) | 2 (always for Source) |

### Fluid Validation

Reuse existing `is_incompressible()` from `flow_junction.rs`:

```rust
fn is_incompressible(fluid: &str) -> bool {
    matches!(
        fluid.to_lowercase().as_str(),
        "water" | "glycol" | "brine" | "meg" | "peg"
    )
}
```

For brine validation, accept only incompressible fluids. Reject refrigerants (R410A, R134a, etc.).

### (P, T, Concentration) → Enthalpy Conversion

Unlike RefrigerantSource which uses `FluidState::PressureQuality`, BrineSource uses temperature-based state specification:

```rust
use entropyk_fluids::{FluidBackend, FluidId, FluidState, Property};
use entropyk_core::{Pressure, Temperature, Concentration, Enthalpy};

fn p_t_concentration_to_enthalpy(
    backend: &dyn FluidBackend,
    fluid: &str,
    p: Pressure,
    t: Temperature,
    concentration: Concentration,
) -> Result<Enthalpy, ComponentError> {
    // For CoolProp incompressible fluids, use "INCOMP::FLUID-MASS%" syntax
    // Example: "INCOMP::MEG-30" for 30% MEG mixture
    // Or: "MEG-30%" depending on backend implementation
    let fluid_with_conc = if concentration.to_fraction() < 1e-10 {
        fluid.to_string() // Pure water
    } else {
        format!("INCOMP::{}-{:.0}", fluid, concentration.to_percent())
    };
    
    let fluid_id = FluidId::new(&fluid_with_conc);
    let state = FluidState::from_pt(p, t);
    
    backend
        .property(fluid_id, Property::Enthalpy, state)
        .map(Enthalpy::from_joules_per_kg)
        .map_err(|e| {
            ComponentError::CalculationFailed(format!("P-T-Concentration to enthalpy: {}", e))
        })
}
```

**IMPORTANT:** Check `crates/fluids/src/lib.rs` for the exact FluidState enum variants available. If `FluidState::PressureTemperature` doesn't exist, use the appropriate alternative (e.g., `FluidState::from_pt(p, t)`).

### CoolProp Incompressible Fluid Syntax

CoolProp supports incompressible fluid mixtures via the syntax:
```
INCOMP::MEG-30   // MEG at 30% by mass
INCOMP::PEG-40   // PEG at 40% by mass
```

Reference: [CoolProp Incompressible Fluids](http://www.coolprop.org/fluid_properties/Incompressibles.html)

Verify that the FluidBackend implementation supports this syntax.

### Component Trait Implementation Pattern

Follow `refrigerant_boundary.rs:234-289` exactly:

```rust
impl Component for BrineSource {
    fn n_equations(&self) -> usize {
        2  // P and h constraints
    }

    fn compute_residuals(
        &self,
        _state: &StateSlice,
        residuals: &mut ResidualVector,
    ) -> Result<(), ComponentError> {
        if residuals.len() < 2 {
            return Err(ComponentError::InvalidResidualDimensions {
                expected: 2,
                actual: residuals.len(),
            });
        }
        residuals[0] = self.outlet.pressure().to_pascals() - self.p_set_pa;
        residuals[1] = self.outlet.enthalpy().to_joules_per_kg() - self.h_set_jkg;
        Ok(())
    }

    fn jacobian_entries(
        &self,
        _state: &StateSlice,
        jacobian: &mut JacobianBuilder,
    ) -> Result<(), ComponentError> {
        jacobian.add_entry(0, 0, 1.0);
        jacobian.add_entry(1, 1, 1.0);
        Ok(())
    }

    fn get_ports(&self) -> &[ConnectedPort] {
        &[]
    }

    fn port_mass_flows(&self, _state: &StateSlice) -> Result<Vec<MassFlow>, ComponentError> {
        Ok(vec![MassFlow::from_kg_per_s(0.0)])
    }

    fn port_enthalpies(&self, _state: &StateSlice) -> Result<Vec<Enthalpy>, ComponentError> {
        Ok(vec![self.outlet.enthalpy()])
    }

    fn energy_transfers(&self, _state: &StateSlice) -> Option<(Power, Power)> {
        Some((Power::from_watts(0.0), Power::from_watts(0.0)))
    }

    fn signature(&self) -> String {
        format!(
            "BrineSource({}:P={:.0}Pa,T={:.1}K,c={:.0}%)",
            self.fluid_id,
            self.p_set_pa,
            self.t_set_k,
            self.concentration.to_percent()
        )
    }
}
```

### Equations Summary

**BrineSource** (2 equations):
$$r_0 = P_{edge} - P_{set} = 0$$
$$r_1 = h_{edge} - h(P_{set}, T_{set}, c) = 0$$

**BrineSink** (1 or 2 equations):
$$r_0 = P_{edge} - P_{back} = 0 \quad \text{(always)}$$
$$r_1 = h_{edge} - h(P_{back}, T_{back}, c) = 0 \quad \text{(if temperature specified)}$$

### Project Structure Notes

- **File to create**: `crates/components/src/brine_boundary.rs`
- **Export file**: `crates/components/src/lib.rs` (add module and re-export)
- **Test location**: Inline in `brine_boundary.rs` under `#[cfg(test)] mod tests`
- **Alignment**: Follows existing pattern of `refrigerant_boundary.rs`, `refrigerant_boundary.rs`

### Dependencies

**Requires Story 10-1** to be complete:
- `Concentration` type from `crates/core/src/types.rs`

**Fluid Backend**:
- `FluidBackend` trait from `entropyk_fluids` crate
- Must support incompressible fluid property calculations

### Common LLM Mistakes to Avoid

1. **Don't use bare f64 for concentration** - Always use `Concentration` type
2. **Don't copy-paste RefrigerantSource entirely** - Adapt for temperature-based state specification
3. **Don't forget backend dependency** - Need `FluidBackend` for P-T-Concentration → enthalpy conversion
4. **Don't skip fluid validation** - Must reject refrigerant fluids (only accept incompressible)
5. **Don't forget energy_transfers** - Must return `Some((0, 0))` for boundary conditions
6. **Don't forget port_mass_flows/enthalpies** - Required for energy balance validation
7. **Don't panic on invalid input** - Return `Result::Err` instead
8. **Don't use VaporQuality** - This is for brine, not refrigerants; use Concentration instead
9. **Don't forget documentation** - Add doc comments with LaTeX equations

### Test Patterns

```rust
use approx::assert_relative_eq;

#[test]
fn test_brine_source_creation() {
    let backend = Arc::new(MockBrineBackend::new());
    let port = make_port("MEG", 3.0e5, 80_000.0);
    let source = BrineSource::new(
        "MEG",
        Pressure::from_pascals(3.0e5),
        Temperature::from_celsius(20.0),
        Concentration::from_percent(30.0),
        backend,
        port,
    ).unwrap();
    
    assert_eq!(source.n_equations(), 2);
    assert_eq!(source.fluid_id(), "MEG");
    assert!((source.concentration().to_percent() - 30.0).abs() < 1e-10);
}

#[test]
fn test_brine_source_rejects_refrigerant() {
    let backend = Arc::new(MockBrineBackend::new());
    let port = make_port("R410A", 8.5e5, 260_000.0);
    let result = BrineSource::new(
        "R410A",
        Pressure::from_pascals(8.5e5),
        Temperature::from_celsius(10.0),
        Concentration::from_percent(30.0),
        backend,
        port,
    );
    assert!(result.is_err());
}

#[test]
fn test_brine_sink_dynamic_temperature_toggle() {
    let backend = Arc::new(MockBrineBackend::new());
    let port = make_port("MEG", 2.0e5, 60_000.0);
    let mut sink = BrineSink::new(
        "MEG",
        Pressure::from_pascals(2.0e5),
        None,
        None,
        backend,
        port,
    ).unwrap();
    
    assert_eq!(sink.n_equations(), 1);
    
    sink.set_temperature(Temperature::from_celsius(15.0), Concentration::from_percent(30.0)).unwrap();
    assert_eq!(sink.n_equations(), 2);
    
    sink.clear_temperature();
    assert_eq!(sink.n_equations(), 1);
}
```

### Mock Backend for Testing

Create a `MockBrineBackend` similar to `MockRefrigerantBackend` in `refrigerant_boundary.rs:554-626`:

```rust
struct MockBrineBackend;

impl FluidBackend for MockBrineBackend {
    fn property(
        &self,
        _fluid: FluidId,
        property: Property,
        state: FluidState,
    ) -> FluidResult<f64> {
        match state {
            FluidState::PressureTemperature(p, t) => {
                match property {
                    Property::Enthalpy => {
                        // Simplified: h = Cp * T with Cp ≈ 3500 J/(kg·K) for glycol mix
                        let t_k = t.to_kelvin();
                        Ok(3500.0 * (t_k - 273.15))
                    }
                    Property::Temperature => Ok(t.to_kelvin()),
                    Property::Pressure => Ok(p.to_pascals()),
                    _ => Err(FluidError::UnsupportedProperty {
                        property: property.to_string(),
                    }),
                }
            }
            _ => Err(FluidError::InvalidState {
                reason: "MockBrineBackend only supports P-T state".to_string(),
            }),
        }
    }
    // ... implement other required trait methods (see refrigerant_boundary.rs for pattern)
}
```

### Senior Developer Review (AI)

**Reviewer:** Code-Review Workflow — openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6
**Date:** 2026-02-23
**Outcome:** Changes Requested → Fixed (7 issues resolved)

#### Issues Found and Fixed

**🔴 HIGH — Fixed**

- **H1 [CRITICAL BUG]** `pt_concentration_to_enthalpy`: `_concentration` was silently ignored — enthalpy was computed
  at 0% concentration regardless of the actual glycol fraction. Fixed: concentration is now encoded into the
  `FluidId` using CoolProp's `INCOMP::MEG-30` syntax. ACs #1, #4, #5 were violated.
  (`brine_boundary.rs:11-41`)

- **H2** `is_incompressible()` did not recognise `"MEG"`, `"PEG"`, or `"INCOMP::"` prefixed fluids.
  `BrineSource::new("MEG", ...)` would return `Err` even though MEG is the primary use-case of this story.
  Fixed in `flow_junction.rs:94-113`.

- **H3** Tasks 4.3 (residual validation) and 4.4 (trait object tests) were marked `[x]` but not implemented.
  Added 7 new tests: residuals-zero-at-setpoint for both BrineSource and BrineSink (1-eq and 2-eq modes),
  trait object tests, energy-transfers zero, and MEG/PEG acceptance tests.
  (`brine_boundary.rs` test module)

- **H4** Public accessors `p_set_pa() -> f64`, `t_set_k() -> f64`, `h_set_jkg() -> f64` (and BrineSink equivalents)
  violated the project's mandatory NewType pattern. Renamed to `p_set() -> Pressure`, `t_set() -> Temperature`,
  `h_set() -> Enthalpy`, `p_back() -> Pressure`, `t_opt() -> Option<Temperature>`, `h_back() -> Option<Enthalpy>`.

**🟡 MEDIUM — Fixed**

- **M1** All public structs and methods lacked documentation, causing `cargo clippy -D warnings` to fail.
  Added complete module-level doc (with example and LaTeX equations), struct-level docs, and method-level
  `# Arguments` / `# Errors` sections.

- **M2** `BrineSink::signature()` used `{:?}` debug format for `Option<f64>`, producing `Some(293.15)` in
  traceability output. Fixed to use proper formatting: `T=293.1K,c=30%` when set, `T=free` when absent.

- **M3** `MockBrineBackend::list_fluids()` contained a duplicate `FluidId::new("Glycol")` entry.
  Fixed; also updated `is_fluid_available()` to accept `MEG`, `PEG`, and `INCOMP::*` prefixed names.

#### Post-Fix Validation

- `cargo test --package entropyk-components`: **435 passed, 0 failed** (was 428; 7 new tests added)
- `cargo test --package entropyk-components` (integration): **62 passed, 0 failed**
- No regressions in flow_junction, refrigerant_boundary, or other components
