Description
As the US Military continues to increase its focus on detached, portable and unmanned power systems, the need for compact, light weight and efficient electric generation has grown significantly.Currently many of the low power requirements of the battlefield are supplied by batteries and small portable engine generators.These sources are inherently heavy and inefficient, driving the need for logistic supply of material and fuel.A liquid-fueled power generator that weighs less than 1 kg and can output 30 W of power for battery recharging will be developed in the proposed program.
