MHD Technology Transfer, Integration and Review Committee
As part of Task 8 of the MHD Integrated Topping Cycle (ITC) project, TRW was given the responsibility to organize, charter and co-chair, with the Department of Energy (DOE), an MHD Technology Transfer, Integration and Review Committee (TTIRC). The TTIRC consists of an Executive Committee (EC) which acts as the governing body, and a General Committee (GC), also referred to as the main or full committee, consisting of representatives from the various POC contractors, participating universities and national laboratories, utilities, equipment suppliers, and other potential MHD users or investors. The purpose of the TTIRC is to: (a) review all Proof-of-Concept (POC) projects and schedules in the national MHD program; to assess their compatibility with each other and the first commercial MHD retrofit plant; (b) establish and implement technology transfer formats for users of this technology; (c) identify interfaces, issues, and funding structures directly impacting the success of the commercial retrofit; (d) investigate and identify the manner in which, and by whom, the above should be resolved, and (e) investigate and assess other participation (foreign and domestic) in the US MHD Program. This report covers the period April 1989 through September 1989. The report is organized into seven sections: introduction; Executive Committee and General Committee activity during this reporting period; committee activities related to technology transfer; ongoing POC integration activities being performed under the auspices of the Executive Committee; recommendations passed on to the DOE by the Executive Committee during this reporting period; planned activities for the next six months.
