Plasma Guns for Magnetized Fuel Targets for PJMIF
SBC: HyperJet Fusion Corporation Topic: GThis project develops a potentially faster and cheaper approach to fusion energy that would result in reduced energy emissions. In plasma jet driven magneto-inertial fusion (PJMIF), an array of discrete supersonic plasma jets is used to form a spherically imploding plasma liner, which then compresses a magnetized plasma target to fusion conditions. With funding from ARPA-E’s ALPHA program and fr ...

Quantum Photon Detector for Operation in the Telecom C Band
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: 06aEmerging technologies for achieving secure communication through the use of quantum photonic systems necessarily require the ability to detect single photons. At the same time, existing telecommunications infrastructure requires practical, high-speed components operating in the C wavelength band. There is no present-day technology capable of combining these requirements to perform practical, high- ...

Wind Sensing with Digital Holography
SBC: MICHAEL SANCHEZ Topic: 14aRemote sensing of wind speeds has proven advantages in wind turbine control and site development assessment, but current methods are too expensive to be economically viable for ubiquitous adoption. A less costly method is required to realize the power efficiency gains from feed-forward control and distributed wind site assessment. This project will address this problem through the use of digital h ...

Machine Learning for Individualized Vehicle Eco-Routing
SBC: BARRON ASSOCIATES, INC. Topic: 12cVehicle “eco-routing” means that instead of driving the fastest or shortest route between two locations, a driver would choose the most energy-efficient route. Eco-routing operates at the macroscopic level to identify the most energy efficient route to a destination based on the specific vehicle and powertrain. Using coarse information about traffic congestion, grade, stop signs, school zones, ...

Fiberoptic Pressure Sensor for Austere Environments
SBC: Prime Photonics, LC Topic: 06bNumerous applications within the energy conversion industry require high accuracy pressure measurements in austere environments. Specifically, oil and gas production and delivery, CO2 sequestration, and geothermal driven power systems can require pressure sensing in high temperature (up to 1200°C), high pressure (up to 20,000 psi), and highly corrosive environments. Furthermore, differential pres ...
