The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Damage Identification Algorithms for Composite Structures

    SBC: Aerobotix, Inc.            Topic: AF06097

    Current survivability and engineering requirements for airframe platforms necessitate the automated application of specialty coatings to the composite inlet duct OML surface. The specialty coatings have tight specification tolerances for the final thickness. Current equipment does not allow for accurate measuring of the specialty coatings. Measurement techniques and equipment need to be develop ...

  2. Low-Cost, Networked, Disposable Chemical Sensor

    SBC: STREAMLINE AUTOMATION LLC            Topic: SOCOM05010

    There is an acute need for a networked chemical sensor that is inexpensive enough to allow it to be treated as a disposable item - deployed and left in-place until the end of its useful life, or until operations move out of communications range. Electrochemical microarray sensors can be fabricated at low enough unit cost to make the development of a disposable sensor node feasible. These sensors ...

  3. Non-Dissipative LES Design Tool for Turbulent Combustion and Acoustics Analysis of Gas Turbine Combustors

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF05178

    Combustion LES is a high fidelity CFD method that can analyze transient/acoustic challenges that previously were impossible to analyze with conventional CFD. However, excessive calculation times hinder the use of LES as an effective design tool. To make LES more practical, we propose to develop and validate a next generation combustion LES code that can solve 10M cell grids in less than one day, ...

  4. A Comprehensive Modeling Tool for Cold Hearth Melting Processes

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF05130

    Under AFRL Contract FA8650-05-M-5214 Phase I, CFDRC has developed and demonstrated the foundation of a comprehensive code for modeling the Cold Hearth Melting (CHM) processing of Titanium alloys. The code includes effects that accurately predict the transient temperature distribution, flow patterns, skull shape, species evaporation, and particle fates in the hearth region for a given set of dynam ...

  5. An Integrated Laser Based Rocket Chamber Ignition and Wall Diagnostics System

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF05202

    CFDRC proposes the integration of Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) with its maturing Laser Induced Spark (LIS) technology for rocket chamber and ultimately in-flight engine health monitoring. During Phase I CFDRC and the University of Tennessee Space Institute (UTSI) completed quantitative LIBS measurements of bi-propellant combustion equivalence ratio while simultaneously demonstrating ...

  6. Advanced Multidisciplinary Tool for Dynamic Loads Analysis of Aerospace Vehicles

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF05318

    Aerospace vehicles that perform aggressive maneuvers are subject to several dynamic loads problems such as buffet and flutter. Unsteady computational aeroelastic simulations of these problems require careful attention to the physical modules of fluid and structures, as well as, to the fluid-structure interfacing and fluid-grid movement. In the Phase I study, a novel solid-brick analogy (SBA) was d ...

  7. A New Method for Automation and Optimization of the Curve Fit Kinetics Generating Process

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF05194

    Run-time and convergence requirements limit practical Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) combustion simulations to simplified chemistry, such as multi-step global kinetic mechanisms. Current methods available for generating reduced global mechanisms are tedious, and the resultant mechanisms often lack accuracy. What is needed, and proposed for development in this SBIR effort, is a software packa ...

  8. A Coupled Transport and Fate Model for Health and Environmental Effects

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF05316

    We propose to develop a Health and Environmental Risks Assessment Capability (HERAC) that will allow Air Force personnel and related contractors to develop actionable, scientifically based, health and environmental risks assessments of maintenance tasks upon aircraft and other weapons. Presently, no capability exists to effectively model and simulate the microscale (from 2 to 50 feet) transport an ...

  9. An Integrated Modeling Framework for Predictive Airman Performance

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF06038

    The overall objective of the proposed project is to develop an integrated bioinformatics software framework for intelligent analysis of biomedical databases, generation of geometrical models for simulations from medical images, and modeling of human biomechanical and physiological performance. In phase I we will analyze the existing data sources and their contents for analysis of human body perfor ...

  10. Probabilistic Methodology for Establishing Test Requirements in a Gas-Turbine System Development and Demonstration (SDD) Program

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF06172

    The most prohibitive factor in the development of a new gas turbine engine is the cost of testing. Substantial reductions in development test costs are possible if test requirements are optimized using probabilistic methodologies. CFDRC will demonstrate a probabilistic methodology, which quantifies the modeling bias and the uncertainties associated with combustor-turbine numerical simulations. ...
