Description

As the agency reported it.

Research and technologies for aerospace propulsion systems - technology area 4 space propulsion. Task orders for space propusion. Contrat IDIQ to orbitec. Research and technologies for aerospace propulsion systems (rtaps) statement of work 1.0 objective the objective of this proposed task order contract is to develop, demonstrate, and verify advanced propulsion system technologies as part of NASA s ongoing, long-term aerospace research programs, addressing a wide variety of propulsion issues. Applications include subsonic, supersonic, hypersonic, and rotorcraft transportation vehicles, as well as aviation safety and space exploration applications. 2.0 scope the contractor shall furnish all personnel, facilities, equipment, material, supplies, and services, except as may be expressly set forth in the contract agreement as government furnished property, and otherwise do all things necessary to, or incident to, performing and providing the work efforts set forth in the following areas. Contract scope includes analytical and experimental investigations covering a wide variety of propulsion components and sub-components having either government, commercial, or military application. . This contract may be used to support all NASA centers that require work within the scope of this statement of work. The contractor shall perform task orders in the following technology areas: 2.4 technology area 4: space propulsion the contractor shall conduct research and development in advanced space propulsion technologies to enable missions with higher performance, reduced cost, improved reliability, and improved safety. Examples of missions currently under consideration and potential technology applications for those missions are listed in table 2.4.1. The contractor shall develop component, subsystem and system technologies for chemical and electric propulsion devices. The scope of these efforts include thrust chamber assemblies (tcas), turbopump assemblies (tpas), propellant feed and storage, instrumentation, and electrical elements. In addition, the contractor shall conduct research on non-traditional space propulsion systems such as rocket based combined cycle systems and nuclear thermal propulsion. . The contractor shall address technical challenges in alternate propellants, thruster performance, novel concepts, thermal control, cryogenics, propellant and combustion product properties, chemistry, fluid dynamics, and advanced concept design and fabrication. 2.4.1 propulsion system design and trade studies in order to focus technology development efforts, the contractor shall conduct system studies that include analysis, conceptual design, and detailed design of advanced propulsion system components and subsystems. Analysis and design efforts shall address structural, thermal, performance, mass/power estimation, actuation and controls, and integration issues. The scope of work under this element includes the following: (1) the contractor shall define goals and figures of merit for overall systems as well as for individual technologies within the context of overall program and project goals and objectives. (2) the contractor shall conduct technology trade studies, evaluating engine concepts and performing conceptual and preliminary design studies to identify and evaluate engine systems and assess their contributions towards meeting program and project goals and objectives. (3) the contractor shall conduct risk assessments of advanced propulsion systems. (4) the contractor shall define technology development plans to ensure the availability of the key technologies for advanced propulsion systems. (5) the contractor shall perform system simulations of propulsion systems and their installations on aerospace vehicles from a 0-d level up through a multidisciplinary 3-d level. The contractor shall also generate propulsion system designs to perform system simulations. (6) the contractor shall
