Phase 2 SBIR
ABSTRACT:The current state-of-the-art for heat exchanger (HEX) analysis and design relies on analytical approaches which are difficult to scale and highly empirical, thus making the ability to optimize advanced heat transfer devices improbable without comprehensive characterization efforts. The design ?standard? for predicting heat exchanger per...
Phase 1 SBIR
ABSTRACT: An innovative approach for removing low-quality (
Phase 1 SBIR
ABSTRACT: This Phase I program proposes conceptual design and proof-of-concept acoustic testing of a unique nozzle concept for providing significant reductions in jet noise. These reductions are achieved through application of nozzle design features that address different jet noise reduction mechanisms, or physics, to provide an additive effect ...
Phase 1 SBIR
This Phase I program proposes use of a Heat Exchanger / Reactor (HEX Reactor) to address thermal management challenges for next generation fighter aircraft. In the proposed application, a HEX Reactor converts excess heat energy into storable energy by harnessing the large energy requirements of endothermic decomposition reactions. The HEX Reacto...
Phase 1 SBIR
A passive screech suppressing augmentor liner concept is proposed to absorb acoustic energy at frequencies below 1 kHz. Acoustic, or screech, liners have historically been designed to affect modes whose frequencies are greater than 1 kHz. Liners have proven to be a cost effective and lightweight way to control screech modes above 1 kHz, but they...
Phase 1 SBIR
A unique modular heat exchanger (HEX) incorporating Phase Change Material (PCM) is proposed for storing high transient thermal loads in the F-35 aircraft. The modular HEX employs a foam metal lattice within the PCM to enhance conduction. In addition, a foam metal lattice is included within the fuel coolant passages to enhance heat transfer by in...
Phase 2 SBIR
The current state-of-the-art for heat exchanger analysis and design relies heavily on analytical approaches which are immature and highly empirical, thus making the ability to optimize advanced heat transfer devices improbable without comprehensive characterization efforts. To address this problem, a Heat Exchanger analytical tool is proposed fo...
Phase 1 SBIR
A multi-component, multiphase flow model is proposed for modeling fuel/coolant properties throughout a fuel-cooled flow network for advanced thermal management systems. The Phase I program will develop a multiphase model to quantify the effects of the working fluids under multiphase conditions so that accurate overall system level thermal perfor...
Phase 1 SBIR
A Heat Exchanger analytical tool is proposed for rapid thermal analysis and design optimization of advanced heat exchangers. The numerical model incorporates a user-friendly interface capable of modeling the details of the heat load calculation throughout the heat exchanger, including the details of the coolant flow network. The tool is comprise...
Phase 2 SBIR
The future of manned and unmanned vehicles requires significant improvements in engine thrust-to-weight ratio, efficiency, and engine operating temperatures. One area where these improvements may be realized is in the main combustor for supersonic missiles, Mach 8-10 strike/reconnaissance aircraft, and hypersonic vehicles operating with a Turbi...
