In accord with FAR 6.302-1, the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) intends to solicit the University of Minnesota located at 200 Oak Street SE Suite 450 Minneapolis MN, on a sole source basis, for delivery of (1) a conceptual design review presenting multiple design options within 60 days of award of order, and (2) quantity 2-each air filter inlet prototypes for a marine environment and a full engineering drawing package with parts list for same within 120 days of award of order. All deliveries made FOB-Destination to NSWCDD. The conceptual design review will show (a) aerosol transport calculations, (b) fluid dynamic models, and (c) mechanical design for each design option presented. The minimum salient characteristics of the filter inlet prototype for marine environments are: (a) The inlet will function in wind conditions up to 30 mph at a 50 percent collection efficiency, (b) Particles 10 micron and above will be removed from airstream prior to filter collection, (c) Collection will be optimized for particles in the 1-5 micron range, (d) The flow rate will be in the 600-1000 liters/minute range, (e) The inlet will contain filter holder that can house two 47 mm filters, (f) The inlet shall be capable of keeping water from entering inlet under rainy conditions, (g) The inlet shall be constructed out of material that is corrosion resistant in a saltwater environment for a minimum of 6 months without a degradation of function, (h) The inlet will be rugged and simple to use by transient military pe! rsonnel with nominal training, (i) The inlet will be simple and inexpensive to fabricate, and (j) The inlet will interface with national pipe thread connections. The Government will consider statements, from all responsible sources, which evidence capability to design and fabricate the required prototype inlet. Capabilities statements shall evidence state-of-the-art aerosol-generation equipment, particle measurement equipment, low-speed wind tunnels, and filter characterization equipment are available and committed for this specific prototype requirement. Capability statements shall also include qualifications that demonstrate success in designing this type of inlet for benchmark entities such as the Environmental Protection Agency and evidence of ownership to patents granted for inventions of very similar items from persons committed to designing and fabricating this specific prototype requirement. Evidence and references to validate statements shall be submitted via email to XDS13@nswc.navy.mil: please reference synopsis number N00178-05-Q-3000 when responding. Capability statements that do not evidence ability to deliver prot! otypes with the required minimum salient characteristics within the required delivery schedule will not be considered.
