Particle and Droplet Size Analyzer

The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Fleet Logistics Center San Diego (FLCSD) intends to award a sole source contract to Malvern Panalytical Inc. for the purchase of a Particle and Droplet Size Analyzer. The analyzer will be used by the Rocket Lab of the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) Department at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) to characterize liquid fuel spray droplet sizes and distributions. The contract will be a firm fixed price (FFP) purchase order. • The analyzer must be able to measure particle/droplet size down to 0.1 microns and up to 750 microns. • The analyzer must have a measurement zone width of at least 750 mm and center height above bench of 363 mm. • The analyzer must be able to acquire data at 10 kHz (with feature upgrade). • The analyzer must have IP65-rated transmitter and receiver units. • The analyzer must be able to operate with additional planar windows for further thermal protection.
