Contract Overview

Solicitation details, issuing organization, response deadlines, documents, and interested companies for this government contract opportunity.

AI Contract Overview

NASA Langley Research Center is inviting companies to express interest in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market a newly developed technology: a high durability ceramic flame holder designed for jet engine simulator applications, specifically for infrared plume studies. This ceramic flame holder addresses limitations of previous stainless steel models, which suffered oxidation and deterioration after minimal use. In contrast, NASA's ceramic version has demonstrated superior longevity, withstanding over 150 hours and 200 cycles of operation without significant wear beyond soot marks. Licensing could be granted on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, potentially within defined fields of use. Interested parties are encouraged to contact NASA Langley’s Office of Strategic Analysis and Business Development with their company background, nature of interest, and preferred contact information to initiate discussions. This solicitation is part of NASA’s efforts to promote public awareness and assess market interest in this advanced flame holder technology. While this posting does not guarantee follow-on procurement, it serves as preliminary market research, and any resulting licensing opportunities will be formally posted through established government channels.

Full Description

Synopsis: NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. THE TECHNOLOGY: Scientists at NASA Langley Research Center have developed a high output flame in support of the efforts to design a jet engine simulator for infrared plume studies. Previous tests had shown that off-the-shelf components would melt or burn up in a short time. Given these design and performance criteria, NASA developed a ceramic flame holder that has a much longer life cycle and can be used with a variety of torches or burners. Where the stainless flame holders showed signs of oxidation, flaking after only three hours of testing, NASAs ceramic flame holder has over 150 hours and 200 cycles of use in a casting furnace, and soot marks are the only signs of use; there are no signs of deterioration. To express interest in this opportunity, please respond to contact@example.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this FBO notice and your preferred contact information. Please also provide the nature of your interest in the technology along with a brief background of your company. For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at http://technology.nasa.gov/. These responses are provided to members of NASA Langleys Office of Strategic Analysis and Business Development (OSACB) for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities. If direct licensing interest results from this posting, OSACB will follow the required formal licensing process of posting in the Federal Register. No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
