Description
National Aeronautics Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center (ARC) is hereby soliciting information under this Request for Information (RFI) to determine whether or not there are interested and available vendor sources capable of meeting the identified requirements. This document is for information and planning purposes only to allow industry the opportunity to verify reasonableness and feasibility of the requirement, as well as promote competition. The U.S. Army Aeroflightdynamics directorate located at NASA Ames Research Center is using the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique to provide instantaneous snapshots of the velocity field within a three-dimensional volume in space. PIV system, in general, is made of four components: 1) Laser that illuminates the area/volume of interest 2) Cameras tuned for maximum efficiency to acquire light from particle wavelength 3) Synchronizing hardware/software that connects cameras, last and smoke generator 4) Smoke generator for producing tracers PIV can be conducted at several levels in terms of capability. Number of cameras and the type of laser used in the test usually defines the capability of the system. In terms of laser, there are two kinds: (1) low frequency, high energy laser or (2) high frequency low energy laser. In terms of cameras, a 2-D PIV uses one camera and is considered the lowest level that is followed by stereo-PIV that uses two cameras. The highest level is the 3-D volumetric PIV that uses 3-4 cameras. The cameras and lasers must be operated synchronously (with precision in the order of nanoseconds). It is also essential that the same software controls both the cameras and the laser. Currently, the following list of relevant equipment are held in the Army inventory and equipment to be procured must be compatible with the following: • Two (2) 4 Mega Pixel (MP) high speed cameras (model: VR640L). • A low speed, high energy laser • A Synchronizer that is capable of controlling the low speed laser • Smoke generator that can produce tracer particles of size less than 1 microns Following is the list of items and technical specifications to be procured: • One (1) - Software Upgrade - enhanced, fast processing 4D PTV algorithm for time resolved 3D volumetric flow field calculation at high seeding diversity, including Iterative Particle Reconstruction (IPR) and Optical Transfer Function (OTF) • Two 2 - high speed cameras - 2560 x 1600 pixels, 10 - 1400 Hz frame rate range at full pixel resolution, 8- or 12-bit digital output, 36 GB RAM memory (up to 72 GB available upon request), Gigabit Ethernet interface NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (01-AUG-2019); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE. PLEASE CONTACT 877-472-3779 or fbo.support@gsa.gov REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
