About this award
This is a $649,106.00 grant awarded to Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to advance additive manufacturing (AM) for high-temperature materials. The work aims to address challenges in fabricating defect-free alloy components using AM methods that can operate at extremely high temperatures, up to 2000°C. CMU, a private non-profit university renowned for research in areas like materials science and engineering, will leverage its expertise to develop solutions under this 3-year grant. The award is not associated with a set-aside program and represents the university's extensive capabilities in providing technical services and fundamental research to federal agencies across a diverse range of fields.
Description
The proposed work addresses topic 6 (advancement of additive manufacturing for high temperature materials) of the early space innovations appendix. There are limited options for materials that can perform well at extremely high temperatures (~2000 c). Alloys of refractory metals are potential candidates, but their properties at low temperatures make component fabrication and usage challenging. Additive manufacturing (am) methods offer potential solutions, but the process parameters needed to fabricate defectfree parts
