Increasing Power Capture of Wave Energy Converters via Advanced control of the PowerTake-Off
SBC: Ocean Power Technologies, Inc. Topic: 09aThe increase in the ability of a wave energy converter (WEC) to capture energy from waves is critical to ensuring the viability and cost effectiveness of wave energy power devices. WECs absorb wave power by applying a back force to oppose the forces that waves exert on the system. The back force is implemented by the systems Power Takeoff and is typically chosen via a constant damping value (resis ...

Novel Energy Saving Phosphorescent OLED Lighting Products
SBC: UNIVERSAL DISPLAY CORPORATION Topic: 04aCurrent lighting technologies are relatively energy inefficient and heavy resulting in considerable energy consumption, particularly in aircraft interiors. Organic light-emitting diode (OLED), potentially an inexpensive diffuse source, may compete directly with conventional lights, and also with inorganic electroluminescent lamps in energy efficient diffuse lighting applications. We have identifie ...

Safe and Renewable Plasticizers from Cellulose
SBC: Exelus, Inc. Topic: 10aPhthalates are a class of petroleum-derived chemicals used as plasticizers to improve the properties of polymeric materials like PVC. However, they are currently being phased out of use in the US and elsewhere due to concerns about their toxicity and action as endocrine disruptors. One viable substitute for phthalates is esters of isosorbide. Isosorbide is a di-alcohol containing two fused oxolane ...

Optimal production planning, sourcing, distribution and routing for complex energy intensive manufacturing companies using High Performance Computing
SBC: OPTIMAL SOLUTIONS INC Topic: 02aEnergy costs are the main cost drivers for large industries like chemicals & amp; gaseous products & amp; they depend on massive economies of scale and an efficient supply chain to stay competitive. Todays approaches to supply chain optimization are based on static snap-shot data and are not suitable for real-time use in tactical demand fulfillment. Companies have yet to effectively harness the po ...

High-Current Low-Cost Efficient Power Transistors for Household Appliances
SBC: STRUCTURED MATERIALS INDUSTRIES, INC. Topic: 11cAn effective approach to addressing the needs of the American energy market includes both the exploration and implementation of alternative energy sources along with improvements in the efficiency. Thus far, a relatively untouched sector of energy consumption has been the efficiency of household and consumer devices. Small, incremental improvements in energy consumption by air conditioners, comput ...

PRISMS- Profile Resolving In-Situ Soil Moisture Sensor
SBC: TRANSCEND ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, LLC Topic: 20aMany contaminated DOE sites are located in arid regions where depth to groundwater is significant and/or contaminants were discharged into a vadose zone through which transport to the groundwater table is dominated by unsteady, unsaturated groundwater flow. The absence of an effective means to monitor vadose zone moisture content in profile has been a persistent impediment to developing and calibr ...

Novel Low Cost Single Layer Outcoupling Solution for OLED Lighting
SBC: UNIVERSAL DISPLAY CORPORATION Topic: 03aOrganic light-emitting diode (OLED), potentially an inexpensive diffuse source, may compete directly with conventional lights, and also with inorganic electroluminescent lamps in energy efficient diffuse lighting applications. A key challenge for improving device efficiency is to extract more of the light trapped in the device by means of a low cost, manufacturable and thin form factor outcoupling ...

Variable Inlet Bypass for Efficient Wide Flow Range Turbocharger Compressor
SBC: Concepts NREC, LLC Topic: 06cIncreased use of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) combined with engine downsizing has pushed automotive turbocharger compressor operation towards and often beyond its efficient and stable operating boundaries. Much of the drive cycle is spent operating the compressor at low flow rates and low pressure ratios, near the compressor surge line, in an area which is usually of low efficiency. Our prelimi ...

15 kV GTO Thyristor Module for Use in Small, Highly Efficient Current Source Inverters Utilizing AC-LinkTM Technology
SBC: United Silicon Carbide, Inc. Topic: 05bRenewable energy resources are being adopted by government entities, utility power providers and more recently by industrial behind-the-meter end-users as well. Solar power is attractive especially in areas where electricity costs are high, such as California and New Jersey. New Jersey is interesting in that its solar insolation is mild compared to the rest of the country, yet it ranks 2nd in the ...
