The development and characterization of LID bonding for Fission Power Systems will �enable� thermal transfer throughout all FPS versions to optimize performance and reliability for both manned and unmanned exploration of Mars, Venus, and the moon.
This technology will be applicable to terrestrial based applications such as commercial reactors, geothermal cores, and other high temperature heat pipe applications relating to regenerative heat transfer. Regenerative heat transfer is a particularly interesting area for the use of this technology and it is a way to capture waste heat for reuse providing energy efficiency.
