Summary of the contracting process

The University of Sheffield is seeking to establish a shock tube laboratory as part of its Translational Energy Research Centre, with a procurement value of £150,000. This opportunity, titled "High Pressure Shock Tube," falls under the goods category and is classified primarily as laboratory, optical, and precision equipment. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, with the tender period ending on 15 April 2021. The laboratory will be based in Yorkshire and the Humber, England, focusing on high-pressure and high-temperature chemical kinetics of combustion reactions.

This tender opening can significantly benefit businesses specializing in laboratory equipment, mechanical installations, and research or development services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, presenting opportunities to enhance their visibility and capabilities in high-pressure combustion applications. Engaging in this project could lead to long-term partnerships with a prominent educational institution focused on advancing energy research.

Notice Description

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS OPPORTUNITY WAS CANCELLED: The University of Sheffield (UoS) with funding from European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is establishing a shock tube laboratory as part of its brand-new Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC). The intention of the shock tube is to study high-pressure chemical kinetics of combustion reactions using various diagnostic equipment. The shock tube will be used to study high-pressure and high-temperature chemical kinetics of hydrogen and methane combustion, before moving onto syngas and larger hydrocarbons. The tube will focus on high-pressure combustion applications, such as the Allam-Fetvedt cycle, diesel engine and scram-jet combustion Additional information: All tender documents, clarification questions & tender returns, must be downloaded / submitted via the In-tend site, shown in the link above.
