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. Unified Kinetic Approach for Simulations of Gas Flows in Rarefied and Continuum Regimes

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF03234

    Flow fields characterized by the simultaneous presence of continuum and rarefied regimes arise in many important applications, including re-entry of aerospace vehicles and micro-fluidics. This project aims to develop a commercial Unified Flow Solver (UFS) that automatically switches between and couples the continuum-fluid-dynamics and kinetic solvers needed for these two regimes. The UFS will maxi ...

  2. Coal-Based Porous Graphite for Aerospace Heat Exchanger Applications

    SBC: TOUCHSTONE RESEARCH LABORATORY, LTD.            Topic: AF03118

    A newly developed "coal-based" porous graphite material has been recently produced. This development is a direct result of Touchstone Research Laboratory's Phase I funding to develop enhanced-strength carbon foam heat-exchanger materials for aerospace applications since low density carbon foams cannot endure high bleed air pressures in aerospace pre-coolers and heat exchangers. The newly develope ...

  3. Precision Targeting System Phase II

    SBC: PHOTON-X, INC.            Topic: AF03227

    In air-to-air and air-to-ground missions, target detection and identification can be extremely difficult, especially at extended ranges. There is a need for a precision targeting system which can operate in a high-altitude environment and detect/ID/locate these deep-hide targets. Photon-X, teamed with A2Z Innovations, proposes an innovative passive EO technique which can provide new innovative t ...

  4. Nanostructured Tungsten for Improved Plasma Facing Component Performance

    SBC: Plasma Processes, LLC            Topic: N/A

    70508B02-II To reduce the cost of burning-plasma experiments conducted for fusion energy research, refractory metals are required to increase high heat flux limitations for plasma facing component applications. For refractory metals such as tungsten (W) to be used in fusion applications, improvements in both mechanical and physical properties are needed. Because recent work identified the be ...

  5. A Down-Hole Probe for Real-Time Ore Grade Assessment in "Look Ahead" Mining

    SBC: RESONON, INC.            Topic: 25

    73147-The removal, sorting, disposal, and treatment of waste rock in mining operations are expensive processes, wasteful of energy, hazardous, and environmentally damaging. The best possible remedy is to avoid creating the waste rock in the first place. This could be accomplished with existing mining techniques if ¿look-ahead¿ ore grading were used to evaluate unmined rock in real time. T ...

  6. Keyhole Squeeze-Off Tool to Enable Repair of Large (4" and 6") Polyethylene Gas Pipes

    SBC: Timberwolf Corporation            Topic: N/A

    70281S02-II There is a critical need for safe, reliable and cost effective repair of aging and expanding natural gas transmission and distribution polyethylene (PE) pipelines in the United States. The industry is moving to ¿keyhole¿ access to repair these pipelines because of safety, reliability, and cost benefits. The critical first step in gas line maintenance and repair is to stop t ...

  7. Future Technology for Aerospace Structures Technology

    SBC: FMW COMPOSITE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: AF03237

    The continued development of hypersonic vehicles and high performance space access vehicles has highlighted the importance of light-weight, load-bearing structures capable of prolonged exposure at elevated temperatures. The optimal solution to this problem would be a hot primary structure capable of supporting the required loads at elevated temperature while also providing the necessary thermal pr ...

  8. An Advanced Numerical Tool for Simulating and Optimizing Spray Cooling in Micro-Gravity

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF03175

    Under AFRL SBIR Contract F33615-03-M-2384 Phase I, CFDRC has developed and demonstrated the foundation of a comprehensive code for modeling spray cooling hardware for micro-gravity applications. The code includes effects that are critical in micro-gravity and cannot be thoroughly investigated using gravity dominated ground-based experiments. In Phase II, this code will be further developed, refin ...

  9. Practical CFD Models for Predicting Lean Blowout and Ignition in Gas Turbine Combustors

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF03168

    Current steady-state CFD combustion codes cannot predict transient combustion phenomena, such as Lean BlowOut (LBO) and ignition in gas turbine combustion systems (e.g. main combustors, interstage turbine burners, and augmentors). In this SBIR, we propose to develop an innovative analytical capability so the combustor designer can address operability issues. The key to predicting LBO/ignition is ...

  10. Weather Extension for a Commercial Geographic Information System

    SBC: PROLOGIC, INC.            Topic: AF03094

    This SBIR Phase II project will develop a new technology that provides 2D/3D/4D visualization of weather information within a commercial GIS (Geographic Information System) environment. GIS systems provide rich support for mapping, geographic data handling, spatial query, and geographic analysis functionality, but do not include native support for weather. GIS systems typically use static (atemp ...
