Abstract:

During the period from 29 September - 17 October 2014, the U. S. Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center NSRDEC collected data on technologies related to the objectives of the SLB-STO-D at the Base Camp Integration Laboratory BCIL, Fort Devens, MA. The goal of the SLB-STO-D is to demonstrate through operationally relevant field experimentation and subsequent analysis that emerging materiel solution technologies and associated non-materiel solutions can reduce the need for fuel resupply by 25 , for water resupply by 75 , and for waste removal by 50 , while maintaining or improving the quality of life at expeditionary base camps in the size range of 50-1000 personnel. The SLB-STO-D is using modeling and simulation, closely integrated with field demonstrations, to show fuel, water, and waste savings attributed to these technologies. Technologies demonstrated in Demo 1 at the BCIL include Expedient Shelters with Non-woven Composite Insulation Liner LINER 1kWe JP-8 Fueled, Man-Portable GenSet MANGEN Renewable Energy for Distributed Under-supplied Command Environments REDUCE and Bidirectional Onboard Vehicle PowerTactical Vehicle-to-Grid Module OBVPTV2GM. This Technical Report documents the objectives, technologies, methods, and results of the Demonstration 1 venue at the BCIL.
