Description

To meet the Defense Logistics Agency’s need for new and qualified sources of technology that will improve products for electrified systems in military and commercial aircraft, Alluvionic proposes a non-chemical battery, electric storage technology named FlyBall. This research will analyze how a disruptive mechanical kinetic energy storage feature set, such as FlyBall’s, would enable multiple electrification efforts by eliminating LION chemical battery limitations. In this Phase II effort, Alluvionic will conduct RDT&E to build a functional prototype that can be used to demonstrate scale capabilities of FlyBall and to identify any areas that need further development. The laboratory prototype will be used to test and validate the FlyBall Phase I hypothesis of performance and efficiency at scale. This information will be used to refine the design of the FlyBall and to optimize its performance for future full-scale production.
