This federal contract award, NNX17AL63G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) for research related to thermophysical properties and transport phenomena models and experiments in reduced gravity. The $537,732 grant supports four major elements: continued development of novel non-contact methods for measuring thermophysical properties, application of these methods to materials of interest, modeling of fluid flow and heat/mass transfer in the levitated samples, and application of the measured properties and models to test theories about the effect of processing on microstructure and material characteristics of nonlinear optical crystals. The contract is not a set-aside and represents a grant for research, with UMass serving as the prime contractor. This work supports NASA's research emphasis on thermophysical property measurements and materials processes affecting microstructure, composition, and material characteristics.
