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 Temperature MEMS Sensors for High-Frequency Shear Stress and Pressure Measurements

    SBC: INTERDISCIPLINARY CONSULTING CORP            Topic: AF07T014

    The goal of the proposed project is to develop a robust, high-bandwidth, micromachined Moiré optical-based shear stress sensor and fiber optic lever pressure sensor in a single package with a remote photo-diode/fiber-optic array optical readout for high-temperature, unsteady high-speed flow measurement applications.  The time-accurate, continuous, direct measurement of fluctuating wall shear str ...

  2. Electron-Beam Additive Manufacturing Process Control for Titanium Alloys

    SBC: Keystone Synergistic Enterprises, LLC            Topic: AF091C002

    Titanium forgings are high cost and long lead time items which negatively impact aircraft manufacturing costs and cycle times.   Additive manufacturing of titanium structural parts has the potential to reduce lead and cycle times, work in process, and the amount of titanium required to produce structural parts.  Additionally, additive manufacturing can be used to fabricate or repair components/ ...

  3. Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) Techniques for Repaired Integrally Bladed Components

    SBC: Keystone Synergistic Enterprises, LLC            Topic: AF081034

    Some modern gas turbine engines utilize integrally bladed rotors (IBR), sometimes called blisks (bladed disks), in the design of the fan and compressor. IBRs are unique because, during fabrication, the airfoil blades are bonded to a hub to form an integral structure, which offers performance benefits over the conventional dovetail design. There are many instances in operation when foreign object d ...

  4. Coherent beam combining of fiber lasers by volume Bragg gratings

    SBC: OPTIGRATE CORPORATION            Topic: AF083004

    Theoretical and experimental study of coherent combining of the beams of fiber lasers is proposed. The key element of the proposed scheme is the use of new corner geometry of Volume Bragg Gratings (VBG) for mixing of the field amplitudes of individual lasers and for the coherent feedback. The development of the technology of recording such corner VBGs is proposed. Software package for computationa ...

  5. Demonstration of a Rapidly Configurable Modular Isothermal Thermal Control System, for Operationally Responsive Space Applications

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: AF083217

    This proposal discusses a scalable modular ORS Thermal Control approach that can provide flexible, lightweight, compact, thermal control systems.  This effort will demonstrate that a thermal control system can be configured and assembled in days instead of years.  Phase I will demonstrate the critical aspects of this approach (low power consumption, isothermal cold plates & radiators, simple rec ...

  6. Development of a Reliable Vapor-Compression thermal Management System for Airborne Applications with Steady and Transient Operation

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: OSD08E10

    Cooling requirements associated with ongoing developments in aircraft technology have exceeded the capabilities of existing thermal management architectures. In recent studies, vapor-compression systems have shown potential to meet these requirements through two-phase heat transfer and capabilities to reject waste heat to high heat-sink temperatures. One important issue that must be addressed pr ...

  7. Novel Thermite Composites for Precision Reactive Munitions

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: AF083098

    Mainstream will produce and test coupons of a novel reactive composite material designed to reduce the size and weight of modern munitions, and thereby improve mobility and precision, without sacrificing offensive power. This composite, based on unique component materials, will offer lower density, lower processing temperature, and higher strength than existing reactive composites. Like those, it ...

  8. Low Power, Compact Aircraft Thermal Management System

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: AF083062

    Avionics electronics operating in high temperature ambient conditions have significantly decreased reliability and lifetime.  The standard rule-of-thumb is to halve the life of an electronic device for every 10 ¢XC (18 ¢XF) increase in temperature.  As aircraft electronics becomes increasingly complex and power dense, the greater the temperature in the electronics storage compartments.  These ...

  9. A Portable Fluidized-Bed Reactor for Flash Pyrolysis of Landfill Waste

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: AF073141

    The Main Base Landfill at Edwards Air Force Base will reach full capacity by no later than 2017, and many other landfills across the country are facing the same situation. Waste streams need to be redirected to extend the lives of these facilities. In Phase I, Mainstream successfully demonstrated that a portable, fast-pyrolysis, fluidized-bed reactor can significantly reduce the amount of biomass ...

  10. Support Jammer Queuing

    SBC: Mnemonics, Inc.            Topic: AF083139

    This activity seeks to investigate new concepts for improved RF sensing, integrated communication data links, and subsequent command and control targeted Jamming of Threat emitters. Several airframes will be considered as part of the overall Sensor/Jammer architecture to include Small-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platforms. These platforms would support Mobility Air Force (MAF) aircraft and the s ...
