NRL Electron Transpiration Cooling in Hypersonic Environments

Due: May 1, 2025

$99,200

Description

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Spacecraft Propulsion Section, part of the Spacecraft Engineering Division, maintains active research in the formation and detection of plasma in extreme environments with a focus on hypersonics. The development plasma-based systems finds broad applications in both aerospace and plasma engineering. In the area of hypersonics, the NRL Spacecraft Propulsion Section is developing technologies for electron transpiration cooling (ETC) to enhance the cooling of aerodynamic surfaces. The opportun...

Grantor Contact InformationMichael S McDonald, 202.404.3680Grantor Emailmichael.s.mcdonald80.civ@us.navy.milOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
