About
United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority awarded a contract to Signal Processing SA for the supply of an Ultrasonic Doppler Velocimetry (UDV) system, valued at 64,000 EUR.
The system will be used in the SmallLab set-up to measure flow velocities in liquid metal without disturbing the flow, providing high spatial and temporal resolution data for validation and benchmarking of computational fluid dynamics codes.
The contract was awarded through a voluntary ex-ante transparency notice after market research identified only three potential suppliers, with Signal Processing SA being the sole provider meeting the required specification.
