With the completion of this initial technology development effort, additional work will be required for infusion and advancement through TRL 7. The remainder of the flight-level environmental testing (electromagnetic interference and compatibility or electromagnetic interference/electromagnetic compatibility (EMI/EMC), thermal vacuum or TVAC, along with vibration and shock testing) and post-test functional checkouts will need to be completed and are currently planned as part of an awarded STMD Early Career Initiative (ECI) Project called Advancement of Exploration Components for In-Space Servicing or AXCIS. The results and reports from these additional tests during the ECI effort will complete the technology development package, advancing the TRL to 5 or 6 while providing a vendor capable of manufacturing flight units and a flight-ready design as well as lessons-learned from the environmental testing. The Coriolis flowmeter development unit would then be incorporated into a demonstration testbed system for microgravity testing to further understand how it functions and performs in a space-like environment, advancing the developed technology to TRL 6 or 7. Following this infusion path will enable NASA program(s)/proposal(s) to procure a flight-rated high accuracy Coriolis mass flowmeter for incorporation into in-space and Lunar/Martian surface spacecraft propellant resupply systems which, after successful mission use, will bring the TRL to 7+.
