- Description
- Novel Vent Design Featuring Variable Flow Control and Rain Protection NASA seeks companies interested in obtaining licensing rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market the following technology. Licenses may be issued on an exclusive, partially exclusive, nonexclusive, or evaluation basis and may include specific fields of use. Scientists at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) have developed a new vent useful in purging closed compartments while also protecting against backflow and entry from water, harmful gases, insects, and foreign objects. Using a system of configurable devices to provide variable flow control, the technology is simple adaptable, configurable, durable, self-adjusting, and economical. The innovation is effective even in high winds, blowing rain, and other extreme weather conditions, unlike systems that use mesh screens and flapper valves. Because the technology concentrates generated acoustic energy in a forward cone, it can direct noise away from work platforms and other areas. For more detailed information, please contact Clark Darty at 256-544-2728 or ronald.c.darty@nasa.gov. If direct licensing interest results from this listing, the MSFC Technology Transfer Office will follow the required formal licensing process. No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this notice.
