Public award description
COLORADO POWER ELECTRONICS IS IN THE PROCESS OF COMPLETING NASA SBIR CONTRACT NNC07CA12C WIDE OUTPUT RANGE POWER PROCESSING UNIT FOR ELECTRIC PROPULSION. AT THE END OF THE PROJECT, WE WILL HAVE A COMPLETE BRASSBOARD PPU EXCEPT FOR THE DIGITAL CONTROL AND INTERFACE UNIT (DCIU) AND FLOW CONTROL DRIVER. THE BRASSBOARD PPU MEETS THE ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROJECT, BUT THE SPECIFIC MASS IS ABOUT 20% TOO LOW COMPARED TO THE FIRST BULLET OF THE SOLICITATION. PRELIMINARY RESULTS FROM TESTING A 4 KW DISCHARGE SUPPLY SHOW THAT THE FULL-POWER EFFICIENCY RANGES FROM 94% TO 96%. THIS PROPOSAL IS TO: (1) DETERMINE WAYS TO REDUCE THE MASS OF THE BRASSBOARD PPU (2) EVALUATE THE BRASSBOARD PPU TO DETERMINE ROBUSTNESS IMPROVEMENTS TO BE IMPLEMENTED IN PHASE II. (3) DETERMINE REQUIREMENTS FOR A DCIU TO BE IMPLEMENTED IN PHASE II. (4) DESIGN AND BUILD A BRASSBOARD FLOW CONTROL DRIVER (5) GAIN EXPERIENCE IN CONTROLLING GAS FLOW
