Tactical and Component Power Technology
Abstract
This project identifies, advances, and enhances emerging power generation, energy storage, and power management technologies. This project funds research in electrochemistry, energy conversion, and signature suppression technologies, including those for primary batteries, rechargeable battery hybrids, fuel cells, power management, and components for electromechanical power generation. This project also researches power sources that are smaller and more fuel-efficient, advanced cooling systems that enable tactical sustainability and survivability, and investigates novel power management methods through low power design tools and operating system dynamic power management software. The cited work is consistent with the Director, Defense Research and Engineering Strategic Plan, the Army Modernization Strategy, and the Army Science and Technology Master Plan. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research, Development and Engineering Command, Communications-Electronics Research, Development, and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Fort Monmouth, NJ and Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD.
