STATEMENT OF WORK FOR Contamination Avoidance Detector Test Suite (CADTS) Engineering Design of the Joint Ambient Breeze Tunnel (JABT) Prepared by Program Executive Officer (PEO), Simulation, Training and Instrumentation 12350 Research Parkway Orlando, FL 32826-3276 Statement of Work For Contamination Avoidance Detector Test Suite (CADTS) of the Joint Ambient Breeze Tunnel (JABT) 1. SCOPE. This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the effort required for the engineering design of a Joint Ambient Breeze Tunnel (JABT) for the test and evaluation (T&E) of emerging chemical/biological (CB) DoD detection systems. 1.1 Background. The CADTS project was initiated to rectify the current broad-based, short-term deficiencies that exist for testing DoD detector systems. Much of the current DoD CB instrumentation and facilities can test only point and passive standoff detection systems; future DoD detection systems will use active standoff technology and require a new suite of instrumentation. An active standoff facility is required for the evaluation of emerging CB Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) detection systems as well as Ultra Violet (UV) Laser- Induced Fluorescence (LIF) systems. This effort will develop an engineering design with system specifications and conceptual drawings of a JABT that can generate a dynamic CB threat using realistic CB simulant challenges. The JABT will evaluate active detector performance at standoff distances of 0.5 - 5.0 km. under dynamic conditions from 0 to 5-mph dynamic threat cloud conditions. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS.

System Requirements Document For Joint Ambient Breeze Tunnel (JABT) 1. SCOPE. The System Requirements Document (SRD) defines the performance requirements for the Joint Ambient Breeze Tunnel (JABT). 1.1 Systems Overview. The JABT will be used to test and evaluate emerging Department of Defense (DoD) standoff detector systems, and to calibrate and validate range test equipment such as the referee Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR)/Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) systems. The JABT will be constructed at Dugway Proving Ground (DPG), UT, and will use chemical and biological (CB) simulants only. Logistics requirements should be considered in design of the JABT but no formal logistic plan is required for this design stage. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS. This section does not apply since no documents are referenced in any Section of the SRD. 3. REQUIREMENTS. 3.1 The JABT Requirements. a. The JABT shall generate and contain realistic CB simulant threats and challenge and evaluate active detector performance at standoff distances of 0.5 - 5.0 km. b. The JABT shall provide dynamic threat cloud conditions from 0.5 to 5.0 mph. c. The JABT shall provide: (1) Means for transmission of the laser beam through either the end or sides of the tunnel so no optical disturbance will occur to either the incident beam or scattered light (i.e., be "invisible" to the LIDAR/LIF detector). (2) Unobstructed view of the CB cloud within the chamber. (3) Minimum backscatter and reflection from any instrument or chamber material (preferably two orders of magnitude less the intensity of the scattered light from the material under test). (4) Ability to disseminate chemical vapors/liquid aerosols/solid aerosols/particulates and biological liquid/solid aerosols. The dissemination levels are illustrated in Table 3.1-1 (< 1 percent concentration change due to aerosol settling). Table 3.1-1 Range of Dissemination Requirements Threat Threshold Objective Vapor (mg/m3) 0.1 - 100 0.01 - 1000 Liquid (micron) Aerosol (particles/liter) 1 -500 500 - 10,000 1 - 1000 10 - 10,000 Particulate (micron) Aerosol (particles/liter) 1 - 500 500 - 100,000 0.7 - 1000 10 - 1,000,000 (5) Fully measure and characterize the threat cloud (edge, size, movement, position and concentration) as it moves dynamically down the tunnel; this data will be used to gage the performance of the detector under test (DUT). (6) Generate a dynamic cloud within the tunnel for a simulant cloud residence time of at least 3 minutes at a velocity of 1 mph so the DUT can determine the edge, movement, position, and concentration of the cloud. (7) A design of the chamber and associated equipment that will be readily and easily decontaminated. (8) Means for minimizing leakage or release of the CB simulant materials into the atmosphere. (9) A designed JABT as to minimize the use of simulant during operation. d. The system shall have a life span of 10 years with an expected operational use of 1000 hours per year. 3.2 The JABT Desired. a. It is also desirable that the JABT be enclosed inside an outer container to provide for year round operation. b. It is desirable that the chamber has limited temperature-conditioning capability to allow for year-round operation in cold climates (no colder than 40 degrees F). 4. VERIFICATION. To be supplied by the contractor. 5. PACKAGING. Packaging requirements are specified in the contract. 6. NOTES.
