Higher School of Power Engineering

The Higher School of Power Engineering was formed in 2019 on the basis of the departments "Turbines, hydraulic machines and aircraft engines", "Compressor, vacuum and refrigeration engineering", "Engineering of power plants and vehicles".

Scientific section "Research of turbines and aircraft engines" supervisor Rassokhin Victor Alexandrovich, Ph.D., professor, tel.: +7 921 956 89 60, e-mail: rassohin_va@spbstu.ru, v-rassokhin@yandex.ru

Unique equipment - powerful blower station with total capacity 4.3 MW, bench for the study of heat transfer and hydraulics of the cooled blades of gas turbines with the parameters: Тr = 500 - 1000°С, рr = (1,25 - 2,5) atm, Гr = 0,5 - 2,5 kg/sec, the sizes of a working zone 100*400 mm, it is possible to install blades l=50-100 mm, b=25-250 mm, Re=(1-10)*105, M=0,25-0,75 allow carrying out of large-scale experiments.

Major scientific research areas:

• Experimental research of the turbomachinery flow parts and outlet cones
• Investigation of the cooled blades on the high-temperature stands
• Optimal design and multi-mode optimization of the gas and steam turbine flow parts
• Gas dynamics and erosion stability of the moiststeam stages
• Design of the small-sized turbine generators
• Strength, Reliability and Diagnostics of Turbines
• Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC)
• Numerical modeling using supercomputer facilities

Partners - PAO "Power machines", REP-holding, Proletarsky zavod, UTMZ.
