Tender description

The University (The Buyer) invites competitive tenders for the manufacture and delivery of a High Pressure (100 bar or more) and Temperature (1000 K) Chamber for Spray Measurements. Bidders must self-certify their adherence to selection and exclusion criteria via the ESPD (Scotland) on PCS-T. Suppliers may be required to submit Means of Proof at a later stage. When completing the ESPD, bidders must have regard for the specific selection requirements detailed in Sections III of this OJEU Notice. This procurement is for a high pressure and temperature chamber for research on sprays. The chamber will have generous optical access for the application of passive and laser-based optical diagnostics. Our plans are to apply techniques such as passive luminescence imaging, shadowgraphy, elastic scattering, ballistic imaging, phase Doppler interferometry, and planar laser imaging (fluorescence, PIV, laser induced incandescence etc.). Most often the chamber will be used for transient fuel spray research associated with transportation engines, but it can and will be used for other studies as well. This procurement is not divided into Lots due the need to coordinate the manufacture of the chamber with 1 supplier.
