Company: Accel Catalysis Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1989 / 2
Abstract: THE PROPOSED WORK INVOLVES APPLICATION OF SUPPORTED MOLTEN SALT CATALYSIS TO THE CATALYTIC ENDOTHERMIC DEHYDROGENATION OF METHANOL. THE CATALYSTS OF INTEREST INCLUDE EUTECTICS COMPOSED OF CU(+1) SALTS WITH HOMOGENEOUSLY DISPERSED ZN(+2) SALTS OR HETEROGENEOUSLY DISPERSED ZNO. IN ADDITION, THE STUDY… more
Company: Applied Thermodynamic Systems Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1989 / 1
Abstract: GAS-TO-LIQUID HEAT EXCHANGERS FIND APPLICATION IN NEARLY EVERY ENERGY CONVERSION AND PROCESS SYSTEM. HOWEVER, DUE TO LOW HEAT FLUXES, THEY ARE EXCESSIVELY LARGE AND EXPENSIVE. LOW HEAT FLUXES ARE CAUSED PRIMARILY BY LOW GAS-SIDE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY IS TO DEVELOP A… more
Company: Breakthrough Agency/Program/Year/Phase: ED / SBIR / 1989 / 1
Abstract: THE LONG TERM OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO PROVIDE AN INTERACTIVE TRAINING SYSTEM FOR NONSPEAKING CHILDREN AND ADULTS. THE COMPUTER-DRIVEN SYSTEM CAN BE CONCEPTUALIZED AS A FLEXIBLE HARDWARE CONFIGURATION WHICH CAN BE PERSONALIZED FOR EACH CHILD'S INPUT/OUTPUT NEEDS AND WHICH "OPENS THE DOOR" TO… more
Company: Prospect Technology Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1989 / 1
Abstract: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS PROJECT RELATES TO THE NEED FOR A HIGH-RESOLUTION SINGLE-PHOTON EMISSION COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (SPECT) IMAGING SYSTEM TO PERFORM FUNCTIONAL BRAIN IMAGING IN BOTH ACADEMIC CENTERS AND HOSPITALS. FOR MANY DISEASES INVOLVING DISTURBANCES IN BRAIN FUNCTIONS, SPECT IMAGING HASBEEN… more
Company: Resift Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1989 / 1
Abstract: THE DETECTION AND SEQUENCING OF PEPTIDES BELOW THE 1-PICOMOLE LEVEL IS EXPECTED TO ESTABLISH NEW FIELDS OF RESEARCH IN THE BIOLOGICAL AND MEDICAL SCIENCES. RESIFT, INC., PLANS TO HELP OPEN THESE NEW FIELDS OF RESEARCH WITH AN INNOVATIVE INSTRUMENT THAT PROMISES FEMTOMOLE SENSITIVITY. THE INSTRUMENT… more
Company: Silicon Dynamics Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOE / SBIR / 1989 / 1
Abstract: THIS PROGRAM'S OBJECTIVE IS TO DEMONSTRATE THE USE OF EXISTING VERY LARGE SCALE INTEGRATED (VLSI) CIRCUIT TECHNOLOGY TO MANUFACTURE A SINGLE-CHIP COMPONENT THAT WILL INTERFACE SILICON MICROSTRIP DETECTORS TO THE SUPERCONDUCTING SUPER COLLIDER'S (SSC'S) CENTRAL PROCESSOR SYSTEM FOR CHARGED PARTICLE… more
Company: Accel Catalysis Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THE PROPOSED WORK INVOLVES APPLICATION OF SUPPORTED MOLTEN SALT CATALYSIS TO THE CATALYTIC ENDOTHERMIC DEHYDROGENATION OF HIGH ENERGY-DENSITY AVIATION FUELS. THE CATALYSTS OF INTEREST ARE HETEROGENEOUSLY DISPERSED PLATINUM AND NICKEL, TO BE USED ALONE OR IN BIMETALLIC CLUSTERS. THE MOLTEN SALTS TO… more
Company: Engineering Analysis Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: THE GOAL OF THIS RESEARCH IS TO PRODUCE A NEW, REAL GAS, THREE-DIMENSIONAL, PARABOLIZED NAVIER-STOKES (PNS) CODE WHICH IS MORE ROBUST, MORE ACCURATE, AND EASIER TO USE THAN THOSE PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE. MOST "CURRENT DAY" PNS CODES (INCLUDING THE AFWAL PNS CODE) ARE BASED ON THE NONITERATIVE,… more
Company: J-tec Assocs Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 1

Search Options
There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc. Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections. For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories. For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
