Tactical and Component Power Technology
Abstract
This project identifies, advances, and enhances emerging power generation, energy storage, and power management components and software. This project researchs electrochemistry, energy conversion, and signature suppression 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 dynamic power management software. This project supports Army science and technology efforts in the Command, Control and Communications, Soldier and Ground portfolios. Work in this Project complements and is fully coordinated with efforts in PE 0603001A (Warfighter Advanced Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Research and Engineering Science and Technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research, Development and Engineering Command, Communications-Electronics Research, Development, and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD.
