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. High-Speed Thermal Imaging of In-Service TBC Blades

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF073057

    Under sponsorship of the Air Force SBIR program, the small business Advanced Fuel Research, Inc. (AFR) is developing an innovative sensor system to map the surface temperature of thermal barrier coated (TBC) turbine blades during operational testing of advanced military jet engines. Temperature mapping is a high priority capability needed to prove ceramic coatings as a reliable means to prevent bl ...

  2. Conjugate Heat Transfer Analysis Capability for Gas Turbine Component Design

    SBC: AERODYNAMIC SOLUTIONS, INC.            Topic: AF073054

    The drumbeat for higher efficiency gas turbine engines is driving new designs capable of operating at higher temperatures and pressure ratios, in fewer stages, and with higher airfoil loads.   These conditions pose a great challenge for turbomachinery designers.  They must now accurately predict airfoil metal temperatures to design effective cooling schemes that counter the high external gas te ...

  3. Acoustic Propagation Analysis Program for Marine Scientists

    SBC: APPLIED MATHEMATICS, INC.            Topic: 819

    The goal of the Phase II project is to develop a prototype of the Marine Acoustic Propagation System (MAPS). MAPS is a computer system designed in a client-server archi9tecture that provides NOAA marine scientists, who do not have an extensive background in underwater acoustics, with a tool that selects the appropriate acoustic model for estimating underwater propagation loss for anthropogenic no ...

  4. Accelerated Development of High-Performance Mo-Si-B-X Alloys via an Approach of Integrating Thermodynamic Modeling with Experimental Study

    SBC: Computherm, LLC            Topic: AF07T003

    The proposed study aims at accelerated development of Mo-Si-B-X (X=Ti, Zr, Hf, Re, Mn) alloys with an optimized balance of properties, via an approach of integrating thermodynamic modeling with experimental study.   On the basis of the Mo-Si-B-X (X=Ti, Zr, Hf) database developed in Phase I, a thermodynamic database of the Mo-Si-B-O-X (X=Ti, Zr, Hf, Re, Mn) system will be developed using the Calp ...

  5. High-Performance Fuels

    SBC: Orbital Technologies Corporation            Topic: AF06194

    ORBITEC proposes to continue the development of high-performance fuels to replace monomethyl hydrazine (MMH) and other storable fuels for in-space propulsion applications. Compounds from various chemical families were proposed in Phase I to address these needs. These families of compounds have greater heats of formation, lower volatility, and lower toxicity than MMH. Their reduced vapor pressur ...

  6. Foil Bearing Supported Centrifugal Cathode Air Blower

    SBC: R&D Dynamics Corporation            Topic: OSD08EP3

    The proposed technology will reduce the size and weight of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) power systems for unmanned air vehicle and munition (UAV) applications thus making future UAVs lighter and more fuel efficient. In addition, the proposed technology will further enable the Air Force to move toward more electric aircraft. The technological advance will have a spillover benefit to land and sea ba ...

  7. Advanced Materials and Chemistries for Electrochemical Energy Storage Devices

    SBC: Yardney Technical Products, Inc.            Topic: OSD08EP2

    The objective of this proposal is to develop advanced battery chemistries that allow batteries to operate safely at specific energies higher than 100 Wh/kg & energy densities over 600 Wh/l, or at power levels above 5kW/kg. The phosphate based LiMPO4 (M = Fe, Mn, Ni, and Co), cathodes are found to be attractive because of the stable nature of the olivine-type structure. Having a PO43− polyanion ...

  9. Multifunctional Aircraft Protective Coating

    SBC: HENTZEN COATINGS, INC.            Topic: AF05133

    The coating system currently used on U.S. Air Force and Navy aircraft is a two-coat system consisting of a chromated epoxy primer per MIL-PRF-23377 ("23377 primer") underneath a urethane topcoat per MIL-PRF-85285 ("85285 topcoat"). The development of a multi-functional coating with advanced performance properties is critical to achieving a single step corrosion inhibiting topcoat to replace the c ...

  10. High Frequency Optoelectronc Oscillator

    SBC: OPEL            Topic: AF05043

    Low phase noise oscillators are core components for communications and radars. System timing jitter is fundamentally important for digital systems and phase noise is the figure of merit for RF systems. For multi-GB/s clocks, optoelectronic oscillators using optical delay for the clock period, appear to have significant advantages. The phase noise may be minimized because the delay variability li ...
