The Pennsylvania State University was awarded a $200,000 Project Grant from the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory under the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program (CFDA 12.800). The grant will support optical heat flux measurements for engine and turbine rigs from May 15, 2022 to May 14, 2023. Under the award, Penn State will conduct research to accelerate turbine development through optical measurements of heat flux in engine and turbine test rigs. The Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program aims to maintain U.S. technological superiority in scientific areas relevant to Air Force needs by preventing technological surprise and creating it for adversaries through a strong research infrastructure focused on Air Force priorities.
