Summary
As a working fluid, CO2 offers the potential of weight and volume reduction opportunities, as well as environmental, performance, and logistic advantages which are attractive for military applications. The Army has formed associations with universities and federal laboratories to advance CO2 developments. This paper reports results of three CO2 research projects sponsored by the US Army CECOM during 1998 and also outlines current 1999 efforts and future plans.
