Commercial Companies
ThermoAnalytics has established strong long-term relationships with the Big 3 Auto Companies.

	Ford pioneered the development of RadTherm and uses it extensively in heat management design and analysis.
	GM has established RadTherm as their "core" heat management analysis tool.
	ThermoAnalytics developed CTD (Chrysler Thermal Designer) under contract. Future analysis at DaimlerChrylser will be done with RadTherm.
	Automobile Vendors
	Similar to the Big 3 companies, their vendors have needs for thermal modeling tools and analytical services. We have developed thermal models for insulation and shield manufacturers. We have also done independent performance testing and product comparisons.

Military Customers
ThermoAnalytics has had continuous contracts with the U.S. Army TACOM (starting at the Applied Research Group in the Keweenaw Research Center) for the development of the infrared signature prediction software, PRISM (established in 1986), as well as related modeling and testing programs. Other DOD activities include supporting the Air Force Research Lab programs, DARPA, Marines, Naval Research Lab, and prime contractors.

	The Tank-automotive and Armaments Command has supported research at ThermoAnalytics through the development of PRISM and MuSES thermal analysis tool under a SBIR Phase II program. A new program under another SBIR Phase II with TACOM will result in the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) Design Tool. These efforts will lead to commercially available codes for preliminary and detailed thermal vehicle design.
	The Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory has had us assist them with software development related to their SWOE programs.
	The Navy currently seeks our help with marine radiance model development as well as ship modeling.
	We have recently started a Dual Use Science & Technology (DUS&T) program with Modelogics (prime) and Pratt & Whitney for the Air Force (AFRL). The object of this program is to create a Thermal Systems Analysis Tool (TSAT) to evaluate existing, near-term and long-term systems using a truly integrated and concurrent engineering approach. The thermal analysis tool supports air, space, ground and sea application work. The multi-platform design environment facilitates accessing established legacy codes.
	In support of the Air Force Research Laboratory Weather Impact Decision Aids Program that includes the software codes IRTSS and TAWS, ThermoAnalytics is producing the core integrated thermal solver and guiding the construction of the target models for these prediction tools.
	ThermoAnalytics is developing a ray-tracing tool optimized for Pro/ENGINEER geometry. This tool will eliminate the difficult translation of target geometry between commercial CAD systems and BRL-CAD. The proposed stand-alone program will be capable of ray-tracing surface and solid geometry from a variety of commercial CAD systems. ThermoAnalytics will optimize it for ray-tracing files produced by Pro/ENGINEER. The program will run on multiple platforms (UNIX and Windows systems). The proposed work capitalizes on the synergism between vulnerability and IR/thermal analyses codes.
	ThermoAnalytics is involved in the development of an integrated electro-optic/IR/thermal/radar analysis and prediction tool under DARPA’s Dynamic Database (DDB) initiative. SAIC/DEMACO, the creators and distributors of the radar ray-tracing code, XPATCH, leads this effort. One of the largest challenges in this effort is the issue of geometry since each discipline places different—and often opposing—requirements on meshed geometry. The integrated tool would employ a common geometry definition for all signature disciplines.
	Other Military Contractors
	We have performed infrared signature modeling and software development on several military prime contractor programs.
