An Advanced Helium Buffer Seal for the SSME, ATD Oxygen Pump

The present configuration of Helium Buffer Seal on the ATD oxygen pump consists of a pair of opposed carbon rings are forced axially against their containment housings. Leakage occurs through the clearance between the rings and the shaft. The total helium leakage through both sides is approximately 239 SCFM. A reduction in leakage to 50 SCFM will result in less helium storage and consequently permit a substantial increase in payload. Under Phase 1 NASA SBIR, a solid T-Ring seal was analyzed and designed that could satisfy the criteria of reducing leakage to 50 SCFM or less. The design makes maximum use of available length and employs a mid length row of hydrostatic orifaces that feed buffer helium directly into a 2 to 3 mil clearance region. The flow splits into opposite paths to buffer oxygen gas on one side and hydrogen gas on the turbine side. The seal employs opposed hydrostatic tapered land secondary seals that provide friction free support of the primary seal and allows the primary seal to follow rotor excursion and maintain concentric operating clearance . The predicted performance of the T-seal is excellent with operation at a safe film thickness of 2 to 2.5 mils and leakage less than 50 SCFM.

ATD-1 Avionics Phase 2 Flight Test: Flight Test Operations and Saftey Report (FTOSR)

The Air Traffic Management Technology Demonstration-1 (ATD-1) is a major applied research and development activity of NASA's Airspace Operations and Safety Program (AOSP). The demonstration is the first of an envisioned series of Air Traffic Management (ATM) Technology Demonstration sub-projects that will demonstrate innovative NASA technologies that have attained a sufficient level of maturity to merit more in-depth research and evaluation at the system level in relevant environments.

ATM Technology Demonstration 1 (ATD-1) Project: Terminal Airspace Technologies for NextGen (Public)

This video highlights the human-in-the-loop (HITL) simulations conducted by the ATD-1 project and features visual elements developed for Traffic Management Advisor - Terminal Metering, Controller Managed Spacing, and Flight Deck Interval Management. The video content is fairly technical and intended for audiences that have some knowledge of air traffic management issues. This includes researchers and management from NASA, FAA, industry partners, and others interested in terminal metering, controller managed spacing, and interval management technologies. Please note that the media release only clears the video for peer audiences such as ATM conferences or as part of presentations to researchers.

An Analysis of the Speed Commands from an Interval Management Algorithm during the ATD-1 Flight Test

NASA's first Air Traffic Management Technology Demonstration (ATD-1) successfully completed a nineteen-day flight test under a NASA contract with Boeing, with Honeywell and United Airlines as sub-contractors. An Interval Management (IM) avionics prototype was built based on international IM standards, integrated into two test aircraft, and then flown in real-world conditions to determine if the goals of improving aircraft efficiency and airport throughput during high-density arrival operations could be met. This paper describes the speed behavior of the IM avionics prototype, focusing on the speed command rate and the number of speed increases.

ATD-2 Integrated Arrival, Departure, and Surface (IADS) Operations

The ATD-2 Integrated Arrival, Departure, and Surface (IADS) traffic management system extends integrated traffic sequencing all the way from the gate to the overhead stream and back again for multi-airport, metroplex environments. NASA and the FAA are developing the IADS system in close coordination with industry partners.

Electronic Departure Approval Requests in ATD-2 Daily Operations

The NASA Air Traffic Management Demonstration 2 project is investigating Integrated Arrival-Departure-Surface (IADS) air traffic management through progressive refinement of a surface air traffic management system fielded at Charlotte-Douglas International Airport. Among the IADS areas under study are departure release-time approval request (APREQ) traffic management initiatives. This paper presents a review of APREQ operations and compliance data from daily electronic APREQ negotiations. It describes APREQ-compliance improvements observed as the ATD-2 electronic negotiation process has matured and discusses contributing factors.

Scheduling Improvements Following the Phase 1 Field Evaluation of the ATD-2 Integrated Arrival, Departure, and Surface Concept

NASA is conducting the Airspace Technology Demonstration-2 (ATD-2) to evaluate an Integrated Arrival, Departure, and Surface (IADS) traffic management system that extends traffic sequencing for the entire life-cycle of a flight from departure gate to arrival gate within multi-airport, metroplex environments. After development and testing in human-in-the-loop simulations, the IADS system was deployed to Charlotte Douglas International Airport for a three-year field evaluation. From the initial IADS concept development through the end of the Phase 1 field evaluation many lessons were learned with regards to the IADS scheduler. In this paper we describe how data from the Phase 1 field evaluation helped identify scheduler improvements and guided the implementation of refinements. The improvements in the IADS scheduler described in this paper are incorporated into the IADS Phase 2 scheduler enabling strategic Surface Metering Programs and will be evaluated during the field evaluation.
