Развитие теплофикации в России: отечественная научная база

Abstract

Relevance. The development of a scientific base in the field of thermal energy is inextricably linked with cen-tralized heat supply and its progressive direction of heating. Centralized heat production remains the main focus of improving the efficiency of heat supply systems. The scientific base, created in the Soviet period, confirmed the cor-rectness of the scientific and engineering decisions taken during its creation, made it possible to accumulate experience for improving the thermal power industry. The purpose of the study is to identify the facts of the development and practical activities of the domestic scientific base in the field of thermal energy during the years of Soviet power. The objective of the study is to analyze the features of the work of scientific institutes in the field of the devel-opment of domestic district heating at various stages of formation. Methodology. In the course of the analysis of various scientific sources, various methods were used: problem-chronological, historical, comparative methods. Thus, the choice of the historical method is applied due to the study of the dynamics of the development of the domestic science of thermal energy. Results. In the course of studying and generalizing various literary and archival sources, the study proved the fact that domestic scientific institutions have developed intensively and over the years have reached significant proportions, which have determined the development of modern thermal energy. Conclusions: In the process of studying various literary and archival sources, it can be concluded that the do-mestic scientific base in the Soviet years allowed for the perfect supply of heat energy to industrial and residential buildings of the Soviet state. These facts can contribute to the development of a strategy for improving modern domestic thermal power engineering.
