Description

The USMC is interested in the development of an improved exhaust system that can withstand repeated heating/cooling cycles while minimizing the transfer of heat from engine exhaust to the external surface of the vehicle for personnel safety. Triton proposes to design, analyze and develop a lightweight and durable exhaust system using a high temperature composite material system that will be less expensive to acquire while still meeting performance specifications and being robust enough to withstand the demanding operating environments. The exhaust system concept will minimize the thermal transfer from the hot exhaust gases to the external surfaces. The temperature of the exposed surfaces of the exhaust system will match the temperature of the surrounding vehicle surface.
