About this opportunity
Navy SBIR topic — Accepting submissions 2026-12-02 to 2027-01-06. As background, the typical arrangement used on U.S. Navy surface combatants consists of four (4) large (20+MW class – GE LM-2500) gas turbines for propulsion and three 3 smaller (3 MW class – Rolls Royce 501-K34) gas turbines for ship service electrical power generation. Presently U.S. gas turbine powered warships use simple cycle machines. However, complex cycles with reheat and other cycle enhancements have been considered and analyzed with the potential for increased efficiency. Further examinations have been performed to evaluate improvements in maintainability/reliability, overall generator set power density/stack up length, and alternative configuration installation flexibility for use in overall electric plant design...
