Ultra-Compact Condenser with Built-in Air Flow Headers
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: AF173006Next-generation aircraft thermal management systems require advanced compact, lightweight condensers to reduce the overall size and mass of high-capacity vapor compression systems. To this end, Creare proposes to develop an ultra-compact, lamination-stack condenser with built-in air flow headers to substantially reduce the overall condenser assembly size and mass. The condenser has a unique config ...

Multi-Physics Models for Parachute Deployment and Braking for Coupling with DoD CREATE-AV Kestrel
SBC: Kord Technologies, Inc. Topic: AF18AT004Design analysis of parachute recovery systems has relied on a combination of core design principles, historical empirical data, and extensive testing for decades. Parachute motion involves complex phenomena involving porous bluff-body aerodynamics and highly deformable cloth. The proposed project is a plugin for the DoD CREATE-AV Kestrel simulation suite that will enable high-fidelity simulations ...

Mechanically Static High Speed 3-D Optical/Digital Holographic Polarimeter
SBC: POLARIS SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: AF18AT007Phase I of this effort involves the creation of a comprehensive end-to-end model of a novel holographic polarimeter.The polarimeter that can be constructed based on our model will be able to determine the full polarization properties (Mueller matrix elements) of scattering, reflecting and absorbing media as a function of the materials depth.Unlike previous attempts, this system will be a real-time ...

Carbon NanotubeCopper Composite as Electron Emitter for Passive Spacecraft Discharging
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: AF18AT011This SBIR project will develop and demonstrate efficient electron emitter based on carbon nanotubecopper (CNT-Cu) composite for passive discharging of spacecraft in plasma environment. A spacecraft moving through harsh plasma environment collects electrons, which leads to the spacecraft charging up to several kilovolts. High voltage between different parts of the spacecraft can ignite arcing, whic ...

High speed, multispectral, linear polarization display
SBC: POLARIS SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: AF17AT021To understand how insects and crustaceans sense and process light fields, researchers need a projection system that provides realistic wide field of view (FOV), high-speed imagery from UV to red (320-650nm) that includes polarization control. Insects and crustaceans have vastly different visual acuity and wavelength response from humans. In addition, some can sense polarization. Therefore, commerc ...

Coupled Multi-Physics Tool for Analysis of Structural Profile Disruption Effects of Aerovehicles
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: AF17AT025High speed air vehicles operate at material strength performance limits and are at significant risk when subjected to additional localized heating that can result in softening, pitting and burn-through the material and potentially change the vehicle structural profile. These effects degrade aerodynamic performance. The team of CFDRC and UDRI proposed to develop, validate and deliver a comprehensiv ...

Hypersonic Dimensional Scanning System
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: AF181012Ablative coatings for hypersonics are tested at facilities such as the AEDC Range G and the Holloman High Speed Test Track. A test article is accelerated to velocity up to 18,000 ft/s in a relevant atmosphere and travels up to 10,000 ft. It is important to measure the coating erosion at multiple discrete points along the trajectory to characterize non-linear ablation response.Existing measurement ...

Efficient Hydrodynamic Ram Test Chamber
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: AF181014Ballistic impact on an aircraft fuel tank skin generates a pressure pulse in the fuel that can cause catastrophic structural damage by hydrodynamic ram (HRAM). The Air Force RAMGUN facility simulates this impulsive hydrodynamic loading for experimental testing of candidate structural joints. A projectile fired by a gas gun impacts one end of a water-filled chamber, launching a pressure wave that i ...
