Description
DARPA is soliciting innovative research proposals in the area of Microtechnologies for Air-Cooled Exchangers (MACE). The primary goal of this program is the development and demonstration of air-cooled exchangers that offer significant reductions in thermal resistance (from case to air) and significant reductions in the total electrical power used to force the air through the system. Possible approaches to these program goals could include the development of innovative concepts for modification of the airflow through the exchanger, such as with synthetic jets, moving mechanical structures, or surfaces that offer enhanced convective heat transfer. Approaches that improve the thermal conduction from the base to all the surfaces of the exchanger are also likely to be important. Approaches that reduce the airflow resistance of the exchanger so that the blower can operate at lower power are of interest. Approaches that improve the efficiency of the blower are also of interest. DARPA is interested in approaches that utilize combinations of enhanced convection and conduction in addition to reduced airflow resistance and improved blower efficiency, or any subset thereof that can meet the program requirements. Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science, devices, or systems. Specifically excluded is research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice. Proposal abstracts are due no later than 12 March 2008. Full proposals are due no later than 21 May 2008. See attached BAA 08-15 solicitation document dtd 8 January 2008, as amended 9 April 2008.
