Advanced Mixed Mode Combustor for Hydrogen F-Class Retrofit (Final Report)

This objective of this project was to develop a retrofittable combustor module for the GE Vernova Operations LLC (GE Vernova, GEV) frame 7F gas turbine (GT) that would allow operation on blends of hydrogen in Natural Gas (NG) between 0% and 100%. The new system was to be part of a package that retained current cycle performance while limiting the increase in NOx emissions to the equivalent of 25ppm (parts per million by volume dry at 15% O2, ppmvd15) with consideration for the impact of hydrogen fuel on the O2 correction. The expectation was that with the addition of Axial Fuel Staging (AFS), turndown within emission compliance would be extended to below 20% GT load. The original project plan included three budget periods (BPs): BP1 spanning October 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024; BP2 spanning September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2025; and BP3 spanning January 1, 2026 through September 30, 2026. The project was terminated early by the DOE on October 10, 2025 about three months prior to the end of BP2. BP3 activities were therefore cancelled. The program was on track to meet all objectives prior to the DOE termination. This Final Report covers work completed during BP1 and BP2 prior to the program termination.

Fleet retrofit report

Flight tests are evaluated of an avionics system which aids the pilot in making two-segment approaches for noise abatement. The implications are discussed of equipping United's fleet of Boeing 727-200 aircraft with two-segment avionics for use down to Category 2 weather operating minima. The experience is reported of incorporating two-segment approach avionics systems on two different aircraft. The cost of installing dual two-segment approach systems is estimated to be $37,015 per aircraft, including parts, labor, and spares. This is based on the assumption that incremental out-of-service and training costs could be minimized by incorporating the system at airframe overhaul cycle and including training in regular recurrent training. Accelerating the modification schedule could add up to 50 percent to the modification costs. Recurring costs of maintenance of the installation are estimated to be of about the same magnitude as the potential recurrent financial benefits due to fuel savings.

Greenbelt Community Project: Solar energy retrofit for a multi-family dwelling

A cooperative project was initiated between Goddard Space Flight Center and the nearby community of Greenbelt, Maryland. The purpose was to design, install and operate an experimental solar heating system on a group of four tandem town houses. The system was successfully developed and is operating. A description is given of the design, installation, system operation and performance as well as the important considerations for judging the economic feasibility of solar heating systems.

Design considerations for the beamwaveguide retrofit of a ground antenna station

A primary requirement of the NASA Deep Space Network (DSN) is to provide for optimal reception of very low signal levels. This requirement necessitates optimizing the antenna gain to the total system operating noise level quotient. Low overall system noise levels of 16 to 20 K are achieved by using cryogenically cooled preamplifiers closely coupled with an appropriately balanced antenna gain/spillover design. Additionally, high-power transmitters (up to 400 kW CW) are required for spacecraft emergency command and planetary radar experiments. The frequency bands allocated for deep space telemetry are narrow bands near 2.1 and 2.3 GHz (Ka-band), 7.1 and 8.4 GHz (X-band), and 32 and 34.5 GHz (Ka-band). In addition, planned operations for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) program require continuous low-noise receive coverage over the 1 to 10 GHz band. To summarize, DSN antennas must operate efficiently with low receive noise and high-power uplink over the 1 to 35 GHz band.

Retrofitting Laboratory Fume Hoods With Face Velocity Monitors at NASA Lewis Research Center

Extensive use and reliance on laboratory fume hoods exist at LeRC for the control of chemical hazards (nearly 175 fume hoods). Flow-measuring devices are necessary to continually monitor hood performance. The flow-measuring device should he tied into an energy management control system to detect problems at a central location without relying on the users to convey information of a problem. Compatibility concerns and limitations should always be considered when choosing the most effective flow-measuring device for a particular situation. Good practice on initial hood design and placement will provide a system for which a flow-measuring device may be used to its full potential and effectiveness.
