Description

Revise the initial synopsis to read as follows. The U.S. Military Academy, West Point, NY is seeking sources to perform identified tasks for a Mobile Alternating Current System (MACS). Contractor requirements: The contractor will identify and insta ll appropriate sensors to measure flow rates of water and hydrogen; hydrogen pressures; water, hydrogen and internal combustion engine exhaust temperatures; power provided by the wind turbine, photovoltaic cells, battery, and internal combustion engine; an d power provided to an electrolyzer and to an external load. Contractor will integrate sensors into a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. Required sensors include one low-flow hydrogen flow meter, one water flow meter, six power tran sducers, four temperature sensors, and one pressure sensor. Background: The purpose of this project is to test a working 10kW energy source that is built on hybrid technologies of solar power, wind power and hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine. Hy drogen is obtained from the electrolysis of water. The goal is to reduce the operations (maintenance) of Army internal combustion engines and emissions while simultaneously reducing fuel burden for both remote power at installations and for the deployed f orce. Cadets will model the system and compare test results with model results. Based on performance data, cadets will recommend an improved design for future versions of the MACS. The water/solar/wind-fueled, 10kW MACS will be tested at USMA, and then shipped to Ft. Irwin, CA, during the summer of 2006.
