High Accuracy Coriolis Mass Flow Meter Development for Use in Cryogenic Space Flight Applications
Active
Description
Procure a new Coriolis mass flow meter sensor that is compatible with cryogenic fluids. Evaluate the existing Advancement of Exploration Components for In-Space Servicing (AXCIS) analog flow meter transmitter design for use with the new cryogenic flow meter sensor and modify the existing transmitter as required. Perform functional testing at the CTL to demonstrate capability of the new cryogenic Coriolis mass flow meter prototype.
Benefits
Produce a high accuracy Coriolis mass flow meter prototype for use in cryogenic space flight applications and perform functional cryogenic testing to evaluate performance.

How to get involved
This is a mature technology (TRL 7+) — the realistic path in is usually NASA's Technology Transfer Program: licensing an existing NASA patent, or a Space Act Agreement to use NASA facilities/expertise directly. NASA also runs a startup licensing program with no upfront fee for companies formed to commercialize a specific NASA technology.
None of these are guaranteed paths for this specific project — TechPort itself doesn't have an "apply" button. Reaching out to the contact(s) above with a specific question is usually the fastest way to find out what's actually open.
