znetsixe 5ae8788fd7 wiki: crisp overhaul — no decoration emoji, all 9 master pages refactored
Source-tree mirror of EVOLV.wiki.git refactor (27a42ee on wiki.git):

- 7 master pages rewritten with clean design (Home, Architecture,
  Topology-Patterns, Topic-Conventions, Telemetry, Getting-Started,
  Glossary). Tables and Mermaid for visuals, gitea alert callouts for
  warnings, shields badges for metadata only. No emoji as decoration.
- Archive.md becomes a removal-changelog pointing readers to git
  history and to the successor pages.
- _Sidebar.md updated to navigate the new flat-name layout.
- Concept / finding / manual pages: uniform mini-header (badges +
  "reference page" callout) added without rewriting domain content.
- Every internal link now uses the flat naming that resolves on the
  live gitea wiki (Concept-ASM-Models, Finding-BEP-..., etc.).

On wiki.git: 29 Archive-* pages hard-deleted (the git history
preserves them; Archive.md documents the removal).

| Term | Meaning in EVOLV |
|:---|:---|
| Area | Plant section. Reserved &mdash; no node implements it yet |
| Process Cell (PC) | Self-contained sub-process. pumpingStation is the only PC-level node |
| Unit (UN) | One major piece of equipment or a coordinator. MGC, VGC, reactor, settler, monster |
| Equipment Module (EM) | A single piece of equipment. rotatingMachine, valve, diffuser |
| Control Module (CM) | A single sensor or actuator. measurement |
| softwareType | The node's S88 type. Used by `ChildRouter` to match `child.register` |
---
## EVOLV runtime
| Term | Meaning |
|:---|:---|
| BaseDomain | Base class for every specificClass. Owns `measurements`, `router`, `emitter`, `logger` |
| BaseNodeAdapter | Base class for every nodeClass. Bridges Node-RED to specificClass via `commandRegistry` |
| specificClass | Pure-JS domain logic. No `RED.*` imports. Unit-testable in isolation |
| nodeClass | Node-RED adapter &mdash; input routing, tick loop, port wiring, status badge |
| ChildRouter | Declarative matcher for `child.register`. `router.onRegister(swType, handler)` |
| commandRegistry | Inbound-msg dispatcher. Topic to descriptor; resolves aliases, coerces units |
| UnitPolicy | Per-node declaration of canonical (internal) and output units |
| MeasurementContainer | Chainable measurement store. Keys: `<type>.<variant>.<position>.<childId>` |
| statusBadge | Composes `node.status({fill, shape, text})` from a HealthStatus |
| HealthStatus | `{level: 0..3, flags, message, source}` &mdash; standardised health summary |
| LatestWinsGate | Mutex with supersede semantics. Superseded calls resolve with `{superseded: true}` |
| outputUtils | Port-0 delta compression and Port-1 line-protocol formatting |
| tick | 1 Hz update loop. Opt-in via `static tickInterval = N` on nodeClass |
| `'output-changed'` | Event the specificClass fires on `this.emitter` when public state shifts |
| `getOutput()` | Domain method returning the current snapshot &mdash; fed to `outputUtils` |
| `getFlattenedOutput()` | Measurements with dot-flattened keys (4-segment `type.variant.position.childId`) |
---
## Topic prefixes
See [Topic Conventions](Topic-Conventions) for the full reference.
| Prefix | Direction | Idempotent |
|:---|:---|:---|
| `set.` | in | Yes |
| `cmd.` | in | No (side-effects) |
| `data.` | in / out | n/a |
| `query.` | in | Yes (read-only) |
| `child.` | in (parent) | Yes (id-keyed) |
| `evt.` | out | n/a |

## Wastewater treatment terms
| Term | Meaning |
|:---|:---|
| WWTP | Wastewater Treatment Plant |
| Influent / Effluent | Inlet / outlet stream of a process unit |
| Activated Sludge | Biological process &mdash; bacteria consume organic matter under aeration. Modelled by ASM1, ASM3 |
| MLSS | Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids &mdash; biomass concentration in the reactor |
| RAS | Return Activated Sludge &mdash; settled sludge pumped back from settler to reactor |
| WAS | Waste Activated Sludge &mdash; excess sludge removed from the system |
| TSS | Total Suspended Solids |
| COD / BOD | Chemical / Biological Oxygen Demand &mdash; organic load metrics |
| NH4 / NO3 | Ammonium / Nitrate &mdash; N species, key for nitrification / denitrification |
| DO | Dissolved Oxygen (mg/L). Setpoint typically around 2 mg/L in aerated zones |
| K_La | Volumetric mass-transfer coefficient (oxygen transfer rate / driving force) |
| OTR | Oxygen Transfer Rate &mdash; diffuser's output to the reactor |
| HRT / SRT | Hydraulic / Sludge Retention Time |
| F/M ratio | Food-to-microorganism ratio |
| Composite sample | A sample built over time, often flow-proportional &mdash; what monster simulates |
See [ASM Models](Concept-ASM-Models) for biological kinetics in detail.

## Pump / hydraulics terms
| Term | Meaning |
|:---|:---|
| BEP | Best Efficiency Point &mdash; operating point with minimum energy per unit flow |
| NPSH | Net Positive Suction Head &mdash; pressure margin to avoid cavitation |
| Affinity laws | Q proportional N, H proportional N-squared, P proportional N-cubed &mdash; how flow / head / power scale with pump speed |
| Characteristic curve | Q to H (or Q to P, Q to efficiency) graph supplied by the pump manufacturer |
| NCog | Normalised cost-of-going metric used by MGC for switching stability |
| Wet-well basin | Buffer volume on a lift station &mdash; what pumpingStation models |
| Setpoint | Commanded value (e.g. flow setpoint = 12 m3/h) |
| Demand | Integrated requirement (e.g. parent's "need this much flow now") |

## Control / signal-processing terms
| Term | Meaning |
|:---|:---|
| PID | Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller |
| Anti-windup | Prevents the integral term from growing unboundedly when the actuator saturates |
| Hysteresis | Switching threshold with a deadband (e.g. start at 80%, stop at 30%) |
| Schmitt trigger | Hysteresis-based binary switch (used for `stopLevel` in pumpingStation) |
| Smoothing | Filtering noise (moving average, exponential, Savitzky-Golay) |
| Outlier detection | Identifying readings outside expected variance |
| FSM | Finite State Machine &mdash; discrete states + transitions |
