This is a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract awarded by NASA to Creare LLC, a small business engineering and research company based in Hanover, New Hampshire. The contract, valued at $124,910, is for the development and demonstration of an innovative Stirling cryocooler that can efficiently produce refrigeration at 30 Kelvin while rejecting heat at 150 Kelvin. This technology is critical for future NASA planetary science missions with limited access to solar power, as...
This is a $749,901 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Creare LLC, a research and development company located in Hanover, New Hampshire. The contract is focused on developing a high-capacity turbo-Brayton cryocooler that can provide 150 watts of refrigeration at 90 Kelvin to support NASA's future missions involving long-term cryogenic storage in space. The proposed cryocooler exceeds the original...
This firm-fixed-price contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Creare LLC, a small business, is for the development and demonstration of a two-stage cryocooler that provides refrigeration at 10 Kelvin, with additional cooling at 60 to 70 Kelvin. The cryocooler will be used for advanced space-borne instruments that require cooling at temperatures of 10 Kelvin and below. The contract, valued at $124,967.00, is a Phase I Small Business Innovation Research...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a firm fixed price contract to Creare LLC, a small business based in Hanover, NH, to develop and demonstrate a two-stage turbo-Brayton cryocooler that can provide refrigeration at 10 Kelvin (K) with additional cooling at 50 to 70 K. This contract, valued at $749,901.00, is part of NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase II to advance cooling technologies for space-borne instruments that require sub-10 K...
This is a Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract awarded by NASA to Creare LLC, a small business engineering R&D company based in Hanover, NH. The $124,997 firm-fixed-price contract is for the design and assessment of a high-capacity turbo-Brayton cryocooler that can provide 150 watts of refrigeration at 90 Kelvin. This technology is intended to address NASA's need for long-term cryogenic propellant storage in space, where typical cryocoolers are not suitable for the high...

This is a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract awarded by NASA to Creare LLC, a small business engineering research and development company, to develop and demonstrate an innovative Stirling cryocooler that can efficiently produce refrigeration at 30 Kelvin (K) while rejecting heat at around 150 K. This builds on the feasibility demonstrated in Phase I. The total contract value is $749,931. Creare has subcontracted with Sunpower, Inc., a leading manufacturer of Stirling cryocoolers, to support the effort. The goal is to fabricate and optimize the cryocooler, which incorporates a regenerator with high heat capacity near the target 30 K cooling temperature, and deliver it to NASA for further performance characterization. This contract is part of NASA's efforts to address the critical need for highly efficient cryocooling systems to support future planetary science missions with very limited access to solar power.
