Turbine Inlet Gas Temperature Measurement System
SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC. Topic: AF083260The Air Force is seeking new technology that will provide the means to accurately measure and monitor turbine inlet gas temperature in gas turbine engines, particularly in advanced engines operating at very high temperatures (>3,100 degree F). In Phase I of this program, Advanced Fuel Research, Inc. demonstrated that turbine inlet gas temperature can be determined from non-intrusive measurements ...

Advanced Methods for Predicting 3D Unsteady Flows Around Wind Turbines
SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC Topic: 39aWind power has an important role in satisfying the power needs of the United States. Since wind power is a clean renewable source of energy, it also serves an important role in reducing dependence on fossil fuels, in particular foreign oil supplies, as well as reducing greenhouse gas and carbon emissions. Unfortunately, significant maintenance costs, recently highlighted by a series of blade failu ...

Energy Harvesting for Efficient Power Generation
SBC: CRYSTAL GENESIS, LLC Topic: AF093184Recent examples of very efficient thermal to electrical energy conversion over small temperature ranges near room temperature suggest that pyroelectric/thermodielectric energy conversion has the potential to far exceed any other alternative energy scavenging approach. Efficient pyroelectric/thermodielectric energy conversion could be made practical if materials with the appropriate properties wer ...

Laser Beacon for Identification, Friend or Foe (IFF) and Combat Identification
SBC: Diffraction, Ltd Topic: AF093100The proposed multi-spectral IFF beacon will use 40 to 50 % effient high power laser diodes at 863, 1064, and 1550 nm wavelengths. Thermal emitters including diamond-like carbon thin films, photonic crystals, and quantum cascade lasers will be characterized and compared. Finally a model to predict the detection range of IFF beacons will be developed using proprietary emitter power and atmospheric ...

Multispectral Desert Fauna Surveillance and Recognition System
SBC: DSPCon Topic: AF093222DSPCon is proposing a new fauna population monitoring system that will automate much of the data collection and analysis processes and increase the frequency with which the animal population can be monitored. This system, called the Automated Animal Population Monitoring System (AAPMS), will enable wildlife management personnel to accurately monitor the population of fauna within the region of in ...

Thermochemically Integrated Solid State Hydrogen Separator and Compressor
SBC: FuelCell Energy, Inc. Topic: 12dWith the depletion of fossil fuel reserves, hydrogen-based energy is becoming increasingly significant. Production, purification and compression of hydrogen represent key technical challenges. Hydrogen is most commonly produced from steam methane reformers, by gasification or as a refining or chemical system off-gas. All of these production systems require purification and compression steps and ...

Multifunctional Catalyst for Coal and Biomass to Liquids Process
SBC: Exelus, Inc. Topic: 26bThe US has abundant coal resources, but their use is constrained by excessive carbon emissions and inefficient technologies to convert them into more useful liquid transportation fuels. Co-gasification of coal and biomass is considered as a potential solution to these problems, providing a new fuel base for future energy needs. A very promising approach is to combine gasification of coal and bioma ...

Catalytic Processing of Biomass to Liquid Fuels
SBC: Exelus, Inc. Topic: 13bThe U.S. has abundant biomass resources and with the right technology, has the potential to convert these renewable resources into valuable industrial products and bio-fuels. However, current high temperature thermochemical processes to convert renewable feedstocks to fuels or chemicals such as pyrolysis and gasification or low temperature enzymatic processes are simply not cost-competitive with ...

Low temperature oxidation of alkanes to alcohols
SBC: Exelus, Inc. Topic: 11aThis SBIR Phase I project addresses the long-standing need for catalytic methods to selectively oxidize light paraffins, especially methane, to commodity alcohols like methanol using air. The goal is to create a complete, sustainable, and cost-effective technology that converts abundant, low-quality natural gas into methanol using a practical, low-temperature route. The proposed technology represe ...
