This federal contract award was granted to Purdue University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on flow boiling and condensation heat transfer under varying gravity conditions. The $795,000.00 grant supports collaborative efforts between Purdue's Boiling and Two-Phase Flow Laboratory (PU-BTPFL) and NASA's Flow Boiling and Condensation Experiment (FBCE) Technology Team. The research aims to advance the understanding of how different gravity levels, such as on the Moon, Mars, or in space, influence flow and phase change heat transfer phenomena. This will contribute to the development of thermal designs that function properly in diverse gravity fields. The contract includes final construction of the FBCE facility, data acquisition, model development, and dissemination of the experimental results through publications and conferences. There is no set-aside designation for this award.
