Purdue University was awarded a $291,895.67 training grant contract from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to investigate the combustion behavior and performance of ammonia borane-based hybrid rocket propellants. The research aims to characterize the regression rate and restart capability of these propellants, which have the potential to be high-performing and mitigate issues associated with conventional liquid fuels. The work will utilize laser diagnostic techniques to...
Purdue University has been awarded a $550,000 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to investigate rotating detonation combustion for space engines using reduced toxicity hypergolic propellants. Purdue will lead this research effort as the prime contractor, partnering with Small Business in Space LLC. The research is to be conducted in West Lafayette, Indiana over a three-year period concluding in January 2023. No set-aside designation or additional context...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded Purdue University a $292,283.96 training grant to develop the technique of phosphor thermometry to conduct in-situ two-dimensional temperature measurements of the surface and near-surface flame structure of an ammonium perchlorate (AP) and hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) composite propellant. This work aims to provide empirical data on propulsion environments to support the development of new models, ultimately reducing...
This is a federal contract award to Purdue University, an institution of higher education and research located in West Lafayette, Indiana. The contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center, is a $223,493.58 training grant to expand the understanding of flame structure and chemistry of composite solid rocket propellants using planar laser-induced fluorescence and infrared laser-absorption techniques. The work will focus on a basic propellant of...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $579,999.57 grant to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on the role of fires and fire-related nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions in atmospheric chemistry. The research aims to collect observations, understand how to use them to interpret satellite-based atmospheric trace gas measurements (especially nitrogen dioxide), and examine the role of higher nitrogen oxide compounds in determining the...
This is a $565,697 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Iowa for research related to nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions trends in the United States. The project will use data from multiple satellite sensors, including Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI), Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS), and TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI), as well as ground-based observations, to quantify NOx emissions at monthly and regional scales from...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University for $615,971.00 to conduct research and testing on heat transfer to lander legs from rocket plumes. The research aims to expand on an existing flight payload that has been tested on suborbital flights, to increase the number of temperature sensors in order to better understand the effects of actively gimballed and throttled rocket motors on lander legs. The grant will fund multiple flight...
Purdue University, a leading research institution, was awarded a $212,555.88 contract by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a new additive manufacturing (AM) technology capable of printing heterogeneous materials with high solids loadings. This is a revolutionary advancement, as it will enable the printing of propellants previously considered unprintable, allowing for the creation of unique geometries that can improve propellant burning rates. The contract...
This is a $226,149.59 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a prominent public research university, to conduct a knowledge gathering payload experiment focused on improving simulations of non-linear contact line motion and low-gravity propellant slosh motion. The objective is to generate data from a tailored testing geometry with some prior zero-gravity flight heritage, in order to better model and predict this common spacecraft...
