- Description
- REQUIREMENTS: 1. Technical Description: It is the Government's desire to conduct a technology development effort focused on advanced combustion systems technologies for current and Future Force turboshaft engines. The offeror shall define the anticipated combustor configuration and performance characteristics consistent with the goals identified below. The combustor design shall be substantiated to achieve the following: 1) Combustor Exit Temperature (T4) (value to be provided upon request) 2) Less than or equal to 0.15 Pattern Factor 3) Less than or equal to 0.06 Radial Profile Factor at 50-70% Root-to-tip Span 4) Greater than or equal to 30% weight reduction (relative to current fielded systems) 5) Greater than or equal to 6,000 hours and 15,000 cycles (cold parts)/7,500 cycles (liners) before crack initiation life goals The offeror shall substantiate the current fielded system capability relative to the above goals and for any other relevant technology measurement parameters. The offeror shall then substantiate the expected improvements in these parameters (over fielded system capability) provided by incorporation of the proposed technologies into the combustor design. The offeror shall substantiate the potential payoffs from incorporation of the proposed combustor technologies into current and Future Force engines. PROPOSAL PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Technical Proposal: The technical proposal shall provide a clear justification for the selection of the proposed advanced combustion systems technology. The justification/rational supporting the proposed technology shall be based upon the potential contribution of this technology to current and Future Force turboshaft engines. The offeror shall define the anticipated combustor configuration and performance characteristics that satisfy the quantitative goals identified in the Technical Description section above. The offeror shall substantiate the fielded system capability relative to these goals and for any other relevant technology measurement parameters. The offeror shall then substantiate the expected improvements in these parameters (over fielded system capability) provided by incorporation of the proposed technologies into the combustor design. The proposal shall include a Statement of Work (SOW) that utilizes the following general task outline: 1) Task I - Design; 2) Task II - Fabrication; 3) Task III - Validation Testing; and Task IV - Management and Reporting. The technical proposal shall also include a clear statement of the program objectives and the specific approach to be pursued and supporting background experience. It shall also contain program milestones, a brief biographical section describing key personnel, a brief description of the facilities/capabilities to be employed in the effort, and a program management section. The offeror will also identify how the proposed propulsion technology is integral to its ongoing efforts to develop or support an Advanced Turbo Propulsion Plan (ATPP) for VAATE.
