Power & Thermal Management for FVL Tech

Abstract

This Project directly supports Future Vertical Lift (FVL) Modernization Priority capabilities by investigating and developing power and thermal management technologies to provide significantly higher electrical power capability to FVL aircraft while addressing consequential size, weight, and thermal issues. This effort provides power capability for advanced electric aeromechanical effectors, advanced mission systems algorithms for route planning and teaming, and advanced electronic warfare devices. This Project investigates emerging electrical power generation and distribution, energy storage, and thermal management technologies needed for future Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) and survivability equipment for application to Future Vertical Lift (FVL) and other Army platforms. Enables significantly increased aircraft electrical power capability for advanced electric aeromechanical effectors, advanced mission systems to include algorithms for route planning and teaming, and for advanced electronic warfare devices while minimizing size and weight. Work in this Project is fully coordinated with PE 0603465A (Future Vertical Lift Advanced Technology Development). The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the United States (US) Army Futures Command.
