Space Nuclear Propulsion (SNP) Material Property Handbook

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA’s) Space Nuclear Propulsion (SNP) project aims to demonstrate the feasibility of nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) as a thrust mechanism for spacecraft. An initial Demonstration Rocket for Agile Cislunar Operations (DRACO) launch will serve as a test of the technology in Earth’s orbit. Future work may involve the development of an NTP engine and spacecraft design with the capability to transport astronauts from Earth to Mars and back safely, though NTP has other potential uses too.

Plug-In Electric Vehicle Handbook for Fleet Managers (Brochure)

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are entering the automobile market and are viable alternatives to conventional vehicles. This guide for fleet managers describes the basics of PEV technology, PEV benefits for fleets, how to select the right PEV, charging a PEV, and PEV maintenance.

SMR Handbook: Hybrid Energy Systems Involving SMRs

Large-scale nuclear reactors are traditionally operated for a singular purpose: steady-state production of dispatchable baseload electricity that is distributed broadly on the electric grid. While this implementation is key to a sustainable, reliable energy grid, SMRs offer new opportunities for increased use of clean nuclear energy for both electric and thermal applications in more locations – while still accommodating the desire to support renewable production sources. This chapter considers a scenario in which renewable generation would be tightly coupled with the nuclear generation source – behind the grid – to meet the grid demand as an integrated energy system while simultaneously producing other commodities with the available thermal energy.

Handbook for Handling, Storing, and Dispensing E85 and Other Ethanol-Gasoline Blends

This document provides information on ethanol fuel properties, standards, codes, best practices, and equipment information for those who blend, distribute, store, sell, or use E15 (gasoline blended with 10.5 percent - 15 percent ethanol), E85 (marketing term for ethanol-gasoline blends containing 51 percent - 83 percent ethanol, depending on geography and season), and other ethanol blends.
