Kalsi Engineering (KEI) Announces Completion of NASA-Funded SBIR Phase II Project

Kalsi Engineering (KEI) is proud to announce the successful completion of our Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project (Miniature passive thermal control valve for mixing or splitting single-phase fluid), funded by NASA. Under this project, KEI developed a patented three-way miniature passive thermal control valve (TCV). These TCVs are used in mechanically pumped single-phase fluid loop (MPFL) thermal systems of rovers. NASA has employed such TCVs in the fluid loops of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), Mars Pathfinder (MPF), and Mars Exploration Rovers (MER).

The demanding requirements and higher cooling needs of the space missions have led to increased vehicle power and system mass. This created a need for an innovative passive thermal control valve with reduced mass/volume and higher flow capacity compared to existing TCVs.

The KEI TCV addresses this need
