Phase I

Contract Number: N00014-99-M-0205
Start Date: 4/21/1999    Completed: 10/31/1999
Phase I year
1999
Phase I Amount
$69,995
The development of a fuel additive that enhances the detonability of current missile fuels qualified for Naval missiles may enable the full potential of the PDE to be reached. Additives which increase energy density, allow for fuel cooling, enchance atomization and mixing, and decrease initiation requirements are the focus of this effort.

Phase II

Contract Number: N00014-00-C-0272
Start Date: 4/2/2008    Completed: 3/2/2008
Phase II year
2000
Phase II Amount
$745,252
The development of a fuel additive that enhances the detonability of current missile fuels qualified for Naval missiles may enable the full potential of the PDE to be reached. Additives which increase energy density, allow for fuel cooling, enchance atomization and mixing, and decrease initiation requirements are the focus of this effort.

Benefits:
Benefits include maximized PDE range in a missile system by reducing the stressing fuel injection and detonation initiator requirements.
