Plasma Electrolytic Diffusion Treatments for Reduced Electrochemical Current Density in Aircraft Structural Fasteners
SBC: IBC Materials & Technologies, LLC Topic: N14AT014Modern aircraft make extensive use of fasteners made of steel, titanium, nickel and other alloys mated with aluminum and composite airframe materials. This coupling of dissimilar materials yields galvanic corrosion issues, which degrades mechanical integrity, is costly to inspect, and poses a safety and reliability risk. Traditional design approaches of corrosion rate predictions based on open cir ...

Active Combustion Control of Augmentor Dynamics using Robust High-Frequency Energy Deposition
SBC: PHYSICS, MATERIALS, AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS RESEARCH L.L.C. Topic: N14AT004Combustion instability, or screech, occurs in many modern gas turbine systems, and is due to the complex physical coupling of the acoustic resonances in the combustion chamber with fluctuations in the heat release of the combustion process. These instabilities can produce large pressure fluctuations that can be severe enough to damage engine hardware. Next-generation gas turbines will increase the ...

Optical Cooling of RF systems using an All Optical Fiber Approach
SBC: N.P. PHOTONICS, INC. Topic: N10AT017We propose an all-fiber approach to heat removal from devices such as high-power RF amplifiers. In our approach, the cooling fiber segment, the pump fiber laser, and the optical fiber used for photon waste removal are all integrated into a single fiber configuration. NP Photonics' high efficiency thulium-doped fiber lasers are used to pump high purity thulium-doped glass fibers, which provide the ...

A Plasma Process to Apply Refractory Metal Coatings to Continuous Lengths of Copper Alloy Rails
SBC: ATS-MER, LLC Topic: N10AT025High strength copper alloys are preferred as the base rails for railguns due to their combination of strength and electrical and thermal conductivity, but suffer damage due to high current densities, arcing, gouging, and exposure to molten aluminum armatures. A refractory metal/alloy coating on the copper base alloy is an attractive approach for increasing rail life if the refractory metal coating ...
