HIGH STRENGTH, WATER-FILLED CERAMIC NANOCOMPOSITE MICROCAPSULES WITH LOW PERMEABILITY FOR SELF-SEALING FUEL BLADDERS
SBC: NANOSONIC INC. Topic: N19BT030During the proposed Navy STTR program, NanoSonic and Virginia Tech will design and synthesize innovative, high strength ceramic nanocomposite microcapsules filled with > 80 volume percent water that are empirically optimized to function as readily dispersed powdered additives with long-term water retention, durability during air craft bladder production, and rupture during ballistic shock. NanoSon ...

Robust, Low Permeability, Water-Filled Microcapsules
SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED Topic: N19BT030The Navy is actively developing a self-sealing, water-activated fuel bladder to mitigate fuel leaks upon mechanical shock (e.g. penetration by a .50 caliber bullet). To circumvent the requirement of an external water source to activate the self-sealing, this system will require water-filled microcapsules that can be incorporated directly into the polymeric matrix of the fuel bladder. Upon mechanic ...

Atomic Triaxial Magnetometer
SBC: VESCENT PHOTONICS LLC Topic: N19AT006Vescent Photonics and MIT Lincoln Labs (MIT-LL) propose to develop a quantum-based vector magnetometer with low size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP+C) for Navy applications. The proposed system will rely on probing magnetically-sensitive, atomic-like transitions of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to provide stable, high-bandwidth readout of the vector magnetic field with sub-picotesla sen ...

Power-Dense Electrical Rotating Machines for Propulsion and Power Generation
SBC: CONTINUOUS SOLUTIONS LLC Topic: N19AT007The primary objective is to develop electric machine/drive topologies and power architectures that achieve the power densities required for 50% more power without the increase in weight or space requirements. In addition to PMSM-based designs, two new machine topologies will be considered. The first is a trapped flux coreless (TFC) machine that utilizes superconducting pucks made of YBCO to produc ...

Quench Monitoring and Control System for High-Temperature Superconducting Coils
SBC: ADVANCED CONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: N19AT016The Navy has been developing superconducting systems, based on high-temperature superconductors (HTS), for future use on Navy ships. One of the challenges associated with superconducting magnets is the possibility of a quench, which is an event where a local hot spot develops within the superconductor that quickly spreads throughout the device, driving it into its normal and dissipative state. Sen ...

Unified Logging Architecture for Performance and Cybersecurity Monitoring
SBC: INNOVATIVE DEFENSE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC Topic: N19AT012In order to achieve real-time monitoring, analysis, and alerting for complex systems, a unified logging architecture must exist that can support the collection and analysis of big data. Our technical objective is to develop a unified logging architecture that supports collection, aggregation, storage, and analysis of system performance and cybersecurity logs, events, and alerts produced by Naval C ...

Process to Mitigate Catastrophic Optical Damage to Quantum Cascade Lasers
SBC: IRGLARE LLC Topic: N19AT004The development of a catastrophic optical damage model for quantum cascade lasers describing instantaneous laser damage at high optical power levels is proposed. The model will be validated by comparison to experimental data. Based on obtained results, changes to laser design and laser fabrication resulting in an increased damage threshold will be implemented. The work will ultimately result into ...

Power Dense Turbo-Compression Cooling Driven by Waste Heat
SBC: MANTEL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: N19AT013The U.S. Navy seeks methods to improve the fuel economy of marine diesel engines through utilization of waste heat. Low temperature engine jacket water, lubrication oil, and aftercooler air are largely untapped streams of thermal energy on these ships, but their utilization circumvents many operation challenges associated with exhaust gases. For example, variable and high exhaust gas temperatures ...
