A CLEAN HELIUM COMPRESSOR/EXPANDER FOR LONG LIFE CRYOGENIC SERVICE
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: N/ACRYOGENIC HELIUM REFRIGERATORS AND LIQUIFIERS CONVENTIONALLYEMPLOY OIL LUBRICATED POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT COMPRESSORS AT THE WARM END AND FREQUENTLY USE PISTON TYPE EXPANSION ENGINES AT THE COLD END. THESE SYSTEMS REQUIRE EXTENSIVE AND VIGILANT MAINTENANCE TO CONTROL CONTAMINATION FROM LUBRICATING OIL AND ITS VOLATILE COMPONENTS MIGRATING TO THE COLD END. HENCE THE NEED FOR LOW MAINTENANCE COMPRESSO ...

Advanced Field-Aligned ICRF Antennas for Improved Breakdown Resistance
SBC: Plasma Processes, LLC Topic: 21bTo make a viable tokamak reactor concept, efficient, robust steady state current drive is required. RF power is among the leading contenders due to its high efficiency and penetration to the plasma core without density limits. To minimize impact on tritium breeding, high power density RF antennas are desired. At present, electrical breakdown limits the power density to ~10 MW/m2. Recent results at ...

Advanced ICRF Antennas for Fusion Energy Devices
SBC: Plasma Processes, LLC Topic: 67bAbstract Ion cyclotron range of frequency (ICRF) power is anticipated to be a primary auxiliary heating source in next step tokamak experiments like ITER. From a technological perspective, electrical breakdown is a significant challenge for ICRF utilization in present experiments and will become more challenging for future devices like ITER and other reactors. An ICRF system utilizes an antenna to ...

Advanced Metallic-Silicon Carbide Composite Claddings for Improved Damage Tolerance
SBC: Plasma Processes, LLC Topic: 29bThe recent events at the Fukushima nuclear power plant highlight the need for enhanced accident tolerance. Of particular concern is the overheating of standard zirconium alloy cladding in a loss of coolant accident (LOCA). One of the leading candidates for future claddings is a silicon carbide (SiC) composite. However, it is clear that due to the inherent brittle nature of ceramics and the intrins ...

ALL-METAL, DEMOUNTABLE CRYOGENIC SEAL
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: N/AIN MOST CRYOGENIC SYSTEMS, THE PIPING JOINTS IN COLD REGIONSOF THE SYSTEM ARE MADE BY WELDING OR SOLDERING. THIS IS ESSENTIAL BECAUSE EXISTING DESIGNS OF CRYOGENIC PIPE SEALS CANNOT BE RELIED ON NOT TO LEAK. ANY SUCH LEAKS INTO THE COLD BOX REDUCE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INSULATION, THEREBY REDUCING THE EFFICIENCY OF THE REFRIGERATOR. WELDEDJOINTS MAKE REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS DIFFICULT AND HAVE ...

A Novel Microfludic Device for Drug Toxicity Studies
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: CBD10103Current drug discovery and development efforts are severely limited by expensive animal trials and oversimplified in vitro models. Results obtained from in vitro models are not predictive of in vivo toxicity owing to significant difference from the in vivo physiological conditions. In this context, we propose to develop and demonstrate a novel microfluidic device that reproduces the physiological ...

A RAINFALL MEASUREMENT DEVICE USING UNDERWATER ACOUSTIC SIGNALS
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: N/AMEASUREMENTS OF RAINFALL OVER LARGE BODIES OF WATER SUCH AS LARGE LAKES OR OCEANS ARE MADE INFREQUENTLY BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF AN ACCURATE MEASURING DEVICE. A LARGE PORTION OF THE EARTH'S PRECIPITATION FALLS OVER THE OCEANS; THEREFORE, IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR UNDERSTANDING GLOBAL CLIMATE TO HAVE ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS OF RAINFALL OVER LARGE WATER AREAS. A DEVICE WILL BE DEVELOPED TO MEASURE RAINFALL AC ...

A Wide Temperature Range, Reliable, Compact Cryogenic Thermal Switch
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: 55eDevelop a reliable, compact cryogenic thermal switch to enable efficient cryogenic xenon collection in nuclear explosion monitoring systems. The thermal switch can be turned off during xenon removal, when the xenon cryotrap is heated up. This prevents the cryocooler cold head from overheating, and allows the system to return to its collection state quickly. Develop a thermosyphon that has an integ ...
