Technical Abstract (Limit 2000 characters, approximately 200 words)

In response to NASA SBIR FY 2018 topic A1.10, Hypersonic Technology, ThermAvant Technologies, LLC (ThermAvant) proposes to develop a high temperature, conformal thermal-mechanical leading edge skin for hypersonic aircraft. The proposed structure will provide high temperature, high heat flux acquisition and dissipation, as well as providing the structural integrity required to meet mission objectives. ThermAvant's research team will demonstrate the proposed concepts and innovations through design, manufacturing and laboratory testing.In response to NASA SBIR FY 2018 topic A1.10, Hypersonic Technology, ThermAvant Technologies, LLC (ThermAvant) proposes to develop a high temperature, conformal thermal-mechanical leading edge skin for hypersonic aircraft. Specifically, the proposed structure will provide high temperature, high heat flux acquisition and dissipation, as well as providing the structural integrity required to meet stringent mission objectives. ThermAvant's research team will demonstrate the proposed concepts and innovations through design, manufacturing and laboratory testing.

Potential NASA Applications (Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words)

NASA’s Hypersonic Technology (HT) project resides within the Advanced Air Vehicles Program (AAVP), under the Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD). 2017 NASA Aeronautics Strategic Implementation Plan, “ARMD will also address more foundational challenges associated with aerodynamic heating, boundary layer transition, and overall thermal management”.

Potential Non-NASA Applications (Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words)

ThermAvant is aware of a number of applications that could potentially use such a high temperature device, e.g. materials processing, such as high temperature wafer production, and reactor cooling. ThermAvant believes there are a multi-million-dollar annual revenue opportunities within each of these industries if the high temperature prototypes are able to successfully be produced.
