1. FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE DEPARTMENT 202 MAI

"ROCKET ENGINES"
In the last years of the Great Patriotic War intensified
attention to research in the field of jet aviation and missile

technology. The steel industry needs qualified
specialists in these relatively new branches of science and technology. IN
1945 at the motor faculty of MAI, a department was organized
"Special Engines", and on January 15, 1953. on the basis of the department "Theory
aviation engines" created department "Missile
engines. Professor A.V. Kvasnikov became the head of the department,
longtime rocket enthusiast.
The main directions of the newly created department were:
-creation of a laboratory base,
- development of curricula and new courses to be taught,
- writing textbooks and manuals.

years connected his life with
aviation and astronautics. More
as a first year student

Moscow Technical
school, he participated in the work

mug N.E. Zhukovsky.
During the First World War, after the end of Khodynskaya
flight school, A.V. Kvasnikov as a fighter pilot participated in the battles
on the Russian-German front.
With the help of rockets mounted on his Nieuport, he shot down
German balloon, from which heavy fire was adjusted
artillery. Ensign A.V. Kvasnikov was awarded for military merits
six orders.
He completes his interrupted training in Tomsk
Institute of Technology in December 1918. In 1922 A.V. Kvasnikov
becomes the head of the department of "Heat Machines" there and in
1927 was elected professor of this department.
17
In 1931, he, along with a group of his teachers and students

transferred to the Moscow Aviation Institute, where he leads
Department of "Theory of aircraft engines". From now on, his whole life
associated with MAI and aviation and rocket engine building. Behind
a decade before the Great Patriotic War, a theory was created
complex propeller installations and a laboratory where they tested
theoretical conclusions.
Alexander Vasilyevich Kvasnikov has always been interested in the development

jet and rocket engines. As a student, he
met K.E. Tsiolkovsky and became interested in the prospects of flying outside
earth's atmosphere.
In connection with the intensive development of jet and rocket technology

Alexander Vasilyevich in 1952 created the department of missile
engines AD-2. And again a decade of hard work with
a team of like-minded people to create a laboratory and educational
scientific base.
In 1959 one of the first books by A.V. Kvasnikov “Theory

liquid rocket engines”, which became for a long time
a basic textbook for students and a practical guide for
engineers working in engine design bureaus and research institutes. Created
by the staff of the department, the laboratory base made it possible to organize
educational process for the training of engineering and scientific personnel in
rocket engines.
18
Book Kvasnikova A.V. "Theory

liquid missile
engines"
For work in the field of LRE to A.V. Kvasnikov, V.A. Tselikov and
VV Ramodina was awarded the State Prize of the USSR.
Anticipating the further development of rocket engines, Alexander
Vasilyevich oriented some of the staff of the department (mainly
young people) to master new sources of energy for the development
rocket engines with higher specific impulse. IN
cooperation with Moscow State University, the Institute of Atomic Energy and others
organizations, it organizes the training of young scientists and engineers in
areas of nuclear physics, plasma physics. At the same time, the department creates
experimental base for research in the field of electric rocket
engines and nuclear power plants. First in the USSR
The plasma torch with a power of 75 kW was launched at the AD-2 department in 1957.
Alexander Vasilievich came up with a proposal to create a
Faculty of the State Budget Problem Laboratory of Plasma and
19
ion electric propulsion. Supported by industry and

departments (Ministry of Higher Education, State Committee for Science and Technology) in 1960. such
The laboratory was established with a staff of 56 people. All this contributed
allocation from the AD-2 department of a new department for the preparation of engineering and
scientific personnel on power and power plants of space
aircraft (now department 208). The last decade of its

vigorous creative activity of A.V. Kvasnikov remained
head of this department.
For his achievements in the field of aviation and rocketry

A.V. Kvasnikov was awarded two Orders of Lenin and the Order
Labor Red Banner.
Widely educated in various fields of science and technology

Alexander Vasilyevich always chose the right strategic goals
rocket engine development. In scientific discussions, he always
was correct and patient, never used the authority of an elder,
was always available to colleagues and subordinates.
As a student, I happened to listen to lectures by A.V. Kvasnikov in

1957-58 according to the theory of rocket engines. I remember my arrival in graduate school to
Alexander Vasilyevich in 1963. He listened carefully to me

literally by the hand and took him to Nikolai Borisovich Rutovsky,
head of department 202 (Rocket engines), saying: “Now this
the direction is led by this person, I ask you to love and favor. Although
I could just send it to the appropriate office. And such
a benevolent attitude towards the interlocutor could be confirmed by everyone who
ever turned to A.V. Kvasnikov.
High erudition, intelligence and attentive attitude to

colleagues and students - the distinctive qualities of Alexander Vasilyevich
20
have always been valued by the staff of the faculty, institute, industrial
organizations and universities in the country. Its graduates are still
high leadership position in many sectors of the national economy
countries. And this is the best memory of the real Teacher -
Alexander Vasilyevich Kvasnikov.

3. HEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT N.B.RUTOVSKY
In connection with the allocation of a new direction in rocket

engine-building-electric rocket engines (EP), headed by
Professor A.V. Kvasnikov became the head of the department in 1961 at MAI 202
"Rocket engines" was elected associate professor, Ph.D. Rutovsky Nikolai
Borisovich.
Friends and buddies, as well as employees - Shteher M. S. and Rutovsky N.

B.
The new manager specialized in regulation

LRE, which explores non-stationary (transient) processes in
engines, which naturally affected the subject of scientific
research work of the department.
22
Even before the separation of the departments, Nikolai Borisovich set up an educational
the course "Automatic regulation of the LRE, in which he considered
propulsion system as a complex technical system consisting of
nodes and assemblies interconnected functionally and
parametrically. This made it possible to create a mathematical model of the rocket engine and
explore its dynamic characteristics.
List of labs used so far
course testifies to the theoretical-experimental approach to
study of the dynamics of the LRE:
- theoretical and experimental study of processes in
displacement power supply system for LRE;
- determination of the static and dynamic characteristics of the gas
reducer;
- dynamic characteristics of the remote control system with
ballast unit (PRB);
- experimental determination of dynamic characteristics
links of the regulator: inertial and integrating;
- determination of the forces of dry and liquid friction in the elements
regulator.
N.B. Rutovsky understood perfectly well that the management of space

aircraft is possible only through the creation
control moments relative to the centers of mass of the apparatus. Main
already implemented in space executive bodies of the jet
control systems (DCS) were liquid rocket engines
low thrust (LRE MT), operating in a pulsed mode.
23
To study the processes in the MT LRE and their dynamic
characteristics in the pulsed mode of operation was required
specialized fire stand on stable
self-igniting fuel components. Considering toxicity
combustion products, the stand must be equipped with an afterburner and

neutralization system.
Created stand and qualified personnel of the department
served as the basis for obtaining contract work from industry
(TMKB Soyuz, Khimmash Design Bureau, Khimmash Research Institute, etc.). Using the
bench experimental results of five graduate students N.B. Rutovsky in
during 1965-1976. defended their candidate, and their leader
Professor N.B. Rutovsky defended in 1978. doctoral dissertation.
The rich experience of the research work of the department 202 has found its
reflected in the textbooks of 1979. and 1988 "Fundamentals of the theory of automatic
management of the RDU "authors: N.B. Rutovsky, E.V. Soloviev (MAI) and

8. HEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT S.F. TIMUSHEV
Sergey Fedorovich
Timushev was born in Karelia in
in 1955. graduated
Faculty engines
flying devices
Moscow Aviation
institute in 1978. After
graduation institute two
served as an officer
technician in the Air Force.
Since 1980, he worked at Energomash Design Bureau in the TNA department on
problems of non-stationary processes in HP and reduction

vibration activity of turbopumps of the 11D520 engine of the Energia rocket
for the Buran system.
In 1983 -1986 Timushev S.F. developed a new method

numerical simulation of the generation of pressure fluctuations and
hydrodynamic noise in centrifugal pumps, based on
separation (decomposition) of pressure fluctuations in a compressible flow
medium into vortex (pseudosound) and acoustic modes. He first
developed a method for decomposition of boundary conditions using
complex acoustic impedance. In 1988, after graduating
correspondence postgraduate studies of MAI, Timushev S.F. defended his PhD
dissertation on this topic. The method he developed
currently successfully used in problems of determining
39
noise level and amplitudes of pressure pulsations in blade machines with

subsonic flow.
In 1989 Timushev S.F. entered the MAI doctoral program, combining

work on a doctoral dissertation with a research
work at the department under the guidance of Professor Ovsyannikov B.V. WITH
1992, they successfully cooperate within the MAI with the French
by SEP (Societe Europeenne Propulsion) in the Ariane-Volcano project
(Arianne-Vulcain). At the same time, cooperation began to develop
with the largest scientific institute in France - CETIM (Centre
Technique des Industries Mécaniques), specializing in
vibration and noise problems. With dwindling support
research activities in Russia in the early 90s
this made it possible to actively improve and develop acoustic
vortex method (AVM) for modeling the noise of bladed machines,

applying it in different pumps and fans. Thanks to SETIM was
a detailed experimental verification of the method was carried out with
measurements of pressure pulsations in more than three hundred points
flow part of the model pump. These results showed
high accuracy of AVM, providing determination of amplitudes
pressure fluctuations, resonant behavior of the pressure field, detection
waveform and spectral composition of tonal components
pressure pulsations. The method was used in SETIM works with
well-known European companies SNECMA, KSB, FAPMO, VALEO for
problems of optimization of the flow part of pumps and fans.
In 1996 Timushev S.F. defended his doctoral thesis at MAI

thesis on modeling pressure pulsations in pumps and
fans. He worked as a professor at Moscow State University from 1997 to 2002. From 2002 to
2004 worked as a visiting researcher and professor at

40
INSA (INSA de Lyon) within the framework of the European NORMA project on
noise reduction of high-speed propulsion vessel
mover. Published more than 50 scientific papers. Is a member
INSE/Europe, IIAV and ASME.
Since 2005, he has been constantly working as a professor at the Moscow Aviation Institute,
Head of the Computing Laboratory of SIC NT MAI. Since 2013
Timushev S.F. becomes the head of the department 202.

9. PROFESSOR D.I.ABUGOV
Abugov Daniil Isaakovich

born March 20, 1908 in the village
Sormovo. His father was a craftsman
mother is a housewife. After
graduating from high school in 1926, he
entered the Faculty of Mechanics
MVTU im. N.E. Bauman. In 1928
the decision of the Council of People's Commissars was
aviation institute was created by

allocation from MVTU them. N.E Bauman.
DI. Abugov, along with others, became
motor faculty student
MAI.
In 1930 he defended his diploma and in the same year entered graduate school
at the MAI, simultaneously combining from November 1930. work in production
- at the plant number 24 named after. Frunze as an engineer.
In 1934 DI. Abugov successfully defends his PhD thesis and

becomes a teacher, and later an associate professor of the department "Theory
aircraft engines. "A characteristic feature of that time was that
institute laboratories were then a testing ground
the latest trends in aviation technology. DI. Abugov together with
colleagues took an active part in the creation of experimental
stands of a research nature, as well as educational

laboratories. In 1936, he was appointed head of the scientific
42
research group. And a year later, under his leadership
the division becomes one of the best in the country motor
laboratories according to the significance of the results of research work and

equipment of the material base. In 1938 D. I. Abugov is appointed
dean, first of the evening, and a year later, of the day motor faculty.
This period was characterized by intensive re-equipment
aviation industry, motor domestic direction
was created on the basis of foreign analogues (far from the best) and
needed rapid development, since the low power of the engines
was an obstacle to the improvement of aircraft of various
destination. The aviation industry was in dire need of
a sufficient number of high-level engineering personnel.
The leadership of the institute and its teaching staff at that time
requirements for the quality of training were set in a fairly strict form
aviation specialists, their number and at the same time increased
number of specializations. In 1941, by order of the People's Commissar for Aviation

industry D. I. Abugov is appointed executive editor
scientific and technical journal of the aviation industry: "Technique
Air Fleet". Requirements of the pre-war and further wartime
increased responsibility for publications, acutely relevant problems,
associated with an increase in the speed and altitude of flights, needed
timely lighting. In 1942, by order of the deputy. People's Commissar
aviation industry D.I. Abugov is transferred to Voronezh for
position of head of the department of technology and design of aviation
engines (Voronezh Aviation Institute). There he is, along with
was engaged in teaching research work. At
direct participation and under his leadership was developed
device "flame extinguisher-silencer" for ASh-62 motors
43
LI-2 aircraft used as a night bomber. IN

1944 this device after successful state tests at the Research Institute
The Air Force was taken into production. At the same time, he is working on
the topic of boosting power and increasing altitude, they
an author's certificate was received, and later, in CIAM,
experimental research in the direction: "Improving
energy performance of motor fuel by adding to it
hydrogen". In 1945, Abugov D.I. returned to the MAI to the department "Theory
aircraft engines", where he teaches and works as the chief
experimental sector of the laboratory of aircraft engines.
The new era of jet aviation has set new tasks, first of all,
it was necessary to prepare a methodological base. In 1957 out of print
a book by D.I. Abugova: "Processes and characteristics of jet
engines", which was one of the first textbooks on the theory
jet engines. The rest of his life D.I. Abugov dedicated
teaching activities at the MAI at the motor faculty. His
high professionalism, a broad outlook was in demand in many
directions, he, being a professor of the department 202, led the cycle
Research work on the subject of intra-chamber processes in the rocket engine. His scientific
far-sightedness determined, 50 years in advance, the topics of work on

new types of engines designed for soft landing of spacecraft on
Mars and Moon. Under his scientific guidance for industry and
Institute prepared a whole galaxy of doctors and candidates of sciences,
specializing in the field of combustion theory. Some of them

were or are now production managers of enterprises
on this topic, many of his students now teach at the Moscow Aviation Institute and other
universities. These are Pikalov V.P., Niyazov V.Ya., Petrenko, Kartsev B.A.,

10. CREATIVE WAY OF PROFESSOR O.I. KUDRINA
Oleg Ivanovich Kudrin was born on 11
October 1921 in the city
Essentuki, Stavropol Territory.

Graduated from the Moscow Aviation
Institute in 1946, Specialist in

areas design
jet engines. Graduate student

Moscow aviation
Institute (1947-1950). Senior
engineer, senior researcher
employee (1952) NII-88 MV USSR.
Senior Lecturer (1953), Associate Professor (1953), Professor (1977)
Moscow Aviation Institute. d.t.s. (1976). Professor (1977).
Corresponding member RANS (16.GU.1992). Academician of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences (1995).
In 1939, at the Physics Olympiad at Moscow State University, O.I. Kudrin was
was awarded a commendable review, which gave him the right (with excellent
certificate) to enter Moscow State University out of competition. O. Kudrin nevertheless

preferred MAI, believing that its interests (related to space
tasks) will be more useful at the MAI. At the post-Olympiad meetings, O.
Kudrin had the opportunity to report on his school experiences with
home-made solid propellant rocket engine with burning the mass of the structure according to the idea of F.A.
Zander. These experiments became known to Academician A.S. Predvoditelev,
then the dean of the Physics Department of Moscow State University. The experiments themselves on motor effects
began to work, but they were abruptly discontinued due to
inaccuracy of another participant in the experiments. There was an untimely
46
ignition of the charge, and at the same time O. Kudrin received severe burns to his face and
eye.
Graduation project O.I. Kudrin performed under the guidance

Professor A.V. Kvasnikov. In the problem of N.V. Inozemtsev and V. Sokolov
"Determining the volume of the combustion chamber for a gas turbine" Diploma
in order to reduce the number of settlement transactions used
integral exponential function. The work was approved by Nicholas
Viktorovich Inozemtsev, he also proposed to appoint Professor V.K.
Koshkin as a reviewer of the project.
The diplomat gave a clarification of the concept of the emergence

surge in a centrifugal compressor. To operate the machine without any
surge on the unstable branch of the characteristic, he proposed
introduce simple constructive means. Their effectiveness has been tested in
specially designed experiment. Proposed in the project
funds were recommended for use in the created in
laboratory of the department of TAD of a large experimental stand. On
protection of the project, O. Kudrin was recommended to enter
graduate school.
Remembering subsequently O. Kudrin's interest in missile firing

tasks, A.S. Predvoditelev in 1954 proposed to the head again
formed at MAI by the rocket department A.V. Kvasnikov participation in
joint with ENIN (with the involvement of O. Kudrin - already
engineer and Ph.D.) studies of the reflow of the apparatus when returning from
space into the atmosphere.
The work required the construction at the MAI of a larger scale

fire gas-dynamic stand. Carried out on it in 1954-1955.
47
the experiments contained observations, including optical ones, at various
flow parameters up to M = 3.
Already in graduate school O.I. Kudrin involved in the educational process -

first of all at the department of TAD MAI (laboratory and practical classes,
lectures on the sections of the course A.V. Kvasnikov). Gradually O.I. Kudrin became
leading lecturer in the specialty of the department 202, including
faculties No. 1, No. 3, No. 6. For faculty No. 6 in the course material
engines organically included the course of electric power systems. Lecturer
emphasized the physical essence of phenomena, and also pointed out unsuccessful
or even erroneous passages in previous presentations in order to develop
future engineer of criticality and creative qualities. O.I. Kudrin before
education of the LRE department at MAI in 1952-1954. at the invitation of M.K.
Tikhonravova taught a course on liquid-propellant rocket engines at the Academy of Industrial Weapons. IN
MAI (already at the created department 208) O.I. Kudrin forms and reads the course
"Plasma Dynamics", creates a new course "Space engines, is
using solar energy. In collaboration with a famous astronomer
F.Yu. Siegel (with whom O.I. Kudrin met at lectures in
planetarium) participates in the construction of the course "Space Physics" and its reading.
In the works at the MAI and NII-88, the issues of creating and
improvement of thermal rocket engines of pulsating and
stationary action, the creation of Stirling engines, were studied
problems of using solar energy in high-temperature
space power systems.
Experimental stands were created (in total about
fifteen), mainly with high temperature working
chemical fuel combustion process, using powerful
high-density radiant streams (concentrated natural
48
Sun, imitators). In order to revive students' interest in space in
collaboration with F.Yu. Siegel designed and built an important element
the office "Physics of the Cosmos" — the telescope system.
The most significant studies:
— clarified the concept of the occurrence of surge in the centrifugal
compressor (theory, experiment); suggested remedies for
surging at the designed large gas turbine stand at
department of TAD;
– the problem (theory, experiment) of direct heating was solved for the first time
gas up to 2000-3000 K in a system with a solar concentrator low
optical density; for the first time shown the possibility of obtaining
correct results when testing the concentrator system -
radiation source on powerful electric arc stands; in the analysis
phenomenon of selective absorption of solar rays is given an essential
for estimated quantities, a refined interpretation of Kirchhoff's law;
- proposed options for solar thermal rocket propulsion
gatel (STRkD); in particular (1967), the STRkD scheme with
afterburning of the working body heated by the Sun (widely advertised
mirirovaya now, including in the IC them. M.V. Keldysh);
— description of losses in the Laval nozzle has been corrected; received ana
lytic formula for calculating friction losses in the liquid-propellant engine nozzle,
given now in textbooks;
– a model of the Stirling engine was created with parameters (power,
efficiency) the highest in our country; for sterling engine
a new thermodynamic cycle and new schemes for its
building;
49
- on the instructions of the IC them. M.V. Keldysh conducted a study

the influence of the radiant flux on the burning rate of solid fuel;
– the registration of the invention on the solid propellant rocket engine of the original scheme was received.
In general, according to the results of the work, 15 inventions were registered;
— O.I. Kudrin was awarded the Prize. 25th anniversary of MAI, awarded
medal of the Federation of Cosmonautics of the USSR.
In 1986 O.I. Kudrin in collaboration with Professor A.V.

Kvasnikov and Academician V.N. Chelomey in the State Register
discovery No. 314 "The phenomenon of anomalously high
increase in thrust in the gas ejection process with pulsating
jet stream"; also issued a certificate of completion

confirmation of the significance of the opening shown for taxiways direct traction
Effect. O.I. Kudrin received an additional diploma from the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences and
commemorative medal.
In the works of the direction under the leadership of O.I. Kudrina - ace
piracy, doctoral studies, just creative contacts like-minded
Lennikov, "Solar circle" - more than 40 people from

Russia and friendly republics. 15 dissertations were defended.
Some of the students of the direction are now leading
positions in specialized institutions.
In 2000, the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences awarded O.I. Kudrin State
scientific scholarship.

11. MEMORIES OF PROFESSOR L.B. EVANGULOV
When in the late 50s we,
then students of Faculty No. 2,
listened to lectures on the course
"Testing rocket engines",

we had no idea that our
lecturer, Lev Bogdanovych Evangulov,

this overweight old man with a fuzzy
diction based on
knotted stick and with difficulty
climbing stairs
faculty marches, essentially
legendary person, one of those
the most "Red Baku
Commissars", 26 of which in 1919 the British arrested, took out
through the Caspian into the desert and there they shot him. And Lev Bogdanovich, who
At the age of 18, he served as Minister of State Security of the Baku
Republic, and the occupiers did not need to shoot him - he was beaten
half to death, breaking the bones of the pelvis, castrated and left to die in prison,
from where a compassionate Armenian woman rescued him and came out.
And he not only survived, but at the age of 30 he graduated from the Moscow Aviation Institute, received
in 1951 the Stalin Prize for the design and organization
production of hydraulic brakes - extremely scarce devices for
tests of piston aircraft engines, returned from

53
industry at the MAI, in 1961 he became a doctor of technical sciences,

professor. And in the 30s he was one of the organizers of the heart
faculty number 2 - his motor laboratory.
Since during the war Lev Bogdanovich was the Chief

designer and director of a plant for the production of liquid
rocket engines designed by L.S. Dushkin for experimental

fighter BI-2, it is not surprising that when dividing the Department of Theory
Aircraft Engines (TAD) to departments 201 and 202, he moved to the department
rocket engines and founded the RKD test course. long time
L.B. Evangulov "fed" MAI, experimental plant and faculty No. 2
industrial orders for hydraulic brakes developed by him.
Lev Bogdanovich - essentially the same age as the century - he was born in 1901.
on the feast of baptism - January 19, according to a new style in Vladikavkaz. His
broken, mangled youth did not break his character and did not
hardened him. On the contrary, he was characterized by good relations in

family, caring for an adopted son and grandson. Among the graduate students of the department 202 he
enjoyed the reputation of a patron, "patron", as he jokingly

called, and this applied not so much to his own
graduate students. He helped everyone who was in a difficult situation, and
“strangers” even more than their own. His extensive connections in
aircraft engine building gave him the opportunity to "get"
scarce material, equipment, to make something that did not allow
make the material base of the EOS MAI. For example, graduate student Prof. DI.
Abugov, Nikolai Borisovich Gorbachev, a very talented and
mathematically well educated engineer, had difficulty with
manufacture of a source of intense pressure fluctuations for
conducting their experimental studies. Lev Bogdanovich
agreed with the management of plant No. 45 and the desired device was
54
manufactured at the highest level of aviation technology. Graduate student

L.B. Evangulova G.A. Ganovsky, thanks to his help, significantly
enriched the firing and pouring stands with new equipment,
received from aircraft factories, and managed to develop an exotic method
measurements of high-frequency fluctuations in the droplet flux density
model oxidizer and fuel in the space of the mixture formation zone
by registering the secondary radiation of luminescent
solutions. This method, recognized as an invention, made it possible

determine the local and instantaneous values of the ratio of two liquid
components sprayed in the mixing zone, which would be

impossible without the help and assistance of Lev Bogdanovich. results
these hitherto unique measurements have established a dynamic
interaction between the injectors and the mixture formation zone in the LRE and
made it possible to develop a methodology for fine-tuning the LRE for stability,
using nozzles as a tool to influence the workflow.
Later, Lev Bogdanovich led the research

work related to the refinement of the oxygen-hydrogen forty-ton
RD-57 designed by OKB A.M. Cradles. A group of researchers, including
graduate student Larisa Arkhipovna Lyulka discovered something new for the system
mixture formation in LRE phenomenon - self-oscillations of the liquid veil in
gas-liquid nozzles, which, with quite stable operation
combustion chambers led during fire tests of the engine to
destructive vibrations in the oxidation path. It was the first

the case when the combustion chamber received damage not from
combustion instability, but from the hydrodynamic instability of the flow
injector components. To study this phenomenon, MAI urgently
a pouring stand with natural pressure (117 bar) was created in a pressure chamber
and optical observations of spray jets of a cluster of 3
55
natural injectors. At the same time, studies of this phenomenon

were also carried out during full-scale full-scale tests of the RD-57 LRE in
NIIKhM (Zagorsk) on a unique installation, also recognized
invention, simulating the operation of the combustion chamber nozzles at
natural value of pressure on hot hydrogen. Instead of liquid
oxygen, water was used, so that the combustion process in the chamber was

Lev Bogdanovich was distinguished by democracy. Every year on January 19th

invited to his birthday party all those who participated in
research work led by him, from green
graduate students to doctors of sciences. There were also guests from Zagorsk
NIIKhM, the main test base for LRE in the USSR - now the Federal
State Enterprise of the Rocket and Space Industry (FKP
RCP) in the city of Peresvet, honoring the founder of missile tests
engines. Lev Bogdanovich passed away at a very advanced age
in 1986, leaving the kindest memory of himself with his colleagues.

Mikhail Sergeevich Stekher
(1906 -1986) was born in Tomsk
province and until the age of 16 he worked as a laborer in
local villages, then came to
city. Worked on the railroad
road, logging, loader.
Here was his Komsomol
youth: like all members of the Komsomol
was in CHON - part of a special
appointments at the Cheka. Fought with
bandits and bootleggers.
Liquidated several
moonshine factories and large
moonshiner gang.
In 1924 entered Tomsk University in physics
Faculty of Mathematics. He worked in the Komsomol bureau. Participated in
development of the first Siberian aircraft and its engine. It's a hobby
aviation determined his future life path.
In 1926 was sent from agitprop as an assistant to the head of the school
first step. Already an established propagandist, he joined the CPSU (B).

Telegram about the transfer of Shteher M.S. in MAI.
From the first years of construction of the Moscow Aviation Institute

designed and supervised the construction of the engine laboratory,
which is still the largest laboratory
institute. The current builders of the new engine building with respect
inspected the floating foundations of propulsion systems, which
have worked for more than 70 years and protected educational buildings from vibration
loads. In difficult war and post-war years for the country
MS Shteher performed a number of scientific and experimental works.
Mikhail Sergeevich brought up more than one generation of engine engineers.

Delivered one of the most important courses of the department "Rocket engines" -
"Fuels and working bodies of RD". In 1972-1984 published at MAI in collaboration with
58
Kesaev H.V., Kozlov A.A., Suvorov V.A. four parts of abstracts on
course, and in 1988. in the publishing house "Mashinostroenie" published his textbook
"Fuels and Working Fluids". Students of the Faculty of Aircraft Engines
devices” use this textbook at the present time.
In addition to reading theoretical courses, Mikhail Sergeevich

systematically organized and improved
laboratory base of the department. He set up a fuel laboratory for

reinforcements of the course of the same name. Labs such as
"Determination of the ignition delay period", "Definition
Corrosive Activity of Rocket Fuel Components” and others

included in the Collection of laboratory works on the course "Fuels and working fluids"
May, 1984.
An excellent methodologist, Professor M.S. Shteher has been
Deputy Head of the Department for Academic Affairs, attended lectures

young teachers. Detailed analysis of these lectures at the meetings
the department served as a real school for beginner lecturers.
The whole life of Professor M.S. Shteher is an example of honest and
selfless service to his people. For his work he was awarded

the Order of the Red Banner of Labor and the Order of the Badge of Honor, medals.

13. PROFESSOR V.D. KURPATENKOV
Kurpatenkov Vyacheslav
Danylovych, (1922 - 1996),

fluid specialist
rocket engines (LRE).
Graduated in 1947 from Moscow
Aviation Institute (MAI)

aircraft engineering specialties
and jet technology. Began

work since 1945 in the field of rocket engines in
research
Institute No. 1 - NII-1 (former
Reactive scientifically
Research institute
- RNII, after - Research Institute of Thermal Processes

(NIITP), currently the Research Center named after M.V. Keldysh. Participated in many
studies of the working process in the combustion chamber and liquid nozzle
rocket engines (LRE). A number of works were carried out according to the assignment experimentally
design bureau S.P. Queen, as in part

research on the use of oxygen-hydrocarbon species in LRE
fuel.
In 1955 he completed postgraduate studies at NII-1 and defended

Ph.D. thesis on the study of LRE nozzles. Many rocket engines of those
years had nozzles profiled on the basis of a technique developed in
this dissertation. For example, such a nozzle is on engines
launch vehicle "Vostok" and its modifications.
60
Since 1952, he began working in the experimental design bureau (OKB)
for liquid rocket engines. Participated in the development and

the creation of several rocket engines, including those for aviation purposes.
The last position in the Design Bureau is Deputy Chief Designer, and
the chief designer was a veteran of Soviet rocket technology
Dushkin.
In 1963, he moved to a full-time teaching job at the Moscow Aviation Institute,
where he had already taught since 1953 as a part-time student. First worked in
positions of associate professor, and then professor of the Department of Rocket Theory
engines. He gave lectures on the theory and calculation of rocket engines.
Vyacheslav Danilovich Kurpatenkov - the legend of the department 202. He was known and
respected in industry, in universities, graduating specialists in
the field of rocket engines. Scientific topics performed under it
leadership at the MAI were innovative and, in addition to implementation, allowed
prepare a lot of graduate and doctoral students. His name and authority
many of them opened the way to the specialty.
In 1960, he wrote the book "The Theory of LRE", published by the publishing house
"Oborongiz" and which has been used for many years in universities in
as the main textbook.
As part of a team of authors, I wrote several sections in the textbook
"Fundamentals of the theory and calculation of liquid rocket engines", which
was published by the publishing house "Higher School" four times (1st edition - in
1967, 2nd – in 1975 , 3rd - in 1983 and 4th (in two volumes) - in 1993).
As part of another group of authors, he wrote several chapters in
textbook "Design and design of LRE", published in 1989
Publishing house "Mashinostroenie".
61
In addition to these fundamental textbooks, the MAI publishing house
about 20 separate works were published - textbooks dedicated to
various problems of calculation of LRE and conducting educational laboratory
edge after ZRD.
For the 3rd edition of the textbook "Fundamentals of the theory and calculation of liquid
rocket engines" in 1985, together with other co-authors,
was awarded the State Prize of the USSR.
For the textbook "Design and design of liquid rocket
engines" in 1990, together with other co-authors, was awarded the 1st
awards to them. 25th anniversary of MAI.
For achievements in the field of rocket engine building in 1992
awarded with a medal. Academician V.P. Glushko.
For achievements in the field of research of the working process of LRE in
In 1956 he was awarded the Order of the Badge of Honor.
A clear mind, a rare understanding of the unity of science allowed him to see
the root of problems and solve them with the simplicity given only to talents.
An essential man, of honest deed and work, not very well dressed.
grandly, he did not want to seem like someone, he knew how not to lead, but to direct,
"
saying: The most important thing is not where you stand, but where you are going."
Everything came together: talent and deep knowledge, love for the profession and
responsibility for the case, the desire to teach not only screwdriver engineers,
but also to educate, to give what he has comprehended.
We all took it for granted while he was with us, and now
there is not much to ask, and it is too late to say much. teacher, master,
62
Mentor - and now the important thing is that when we began to live without him, we
we live as he taught. Taking an exam with him heard distressed

"
voice: How are you going to raise children, what to feed when you yourself
do you study?" And his lectures were excellent, but when I saw his archive, I was
amazed that the material was perfected every year: new schemes, new
calculations, new data in order, tens
written notebooks.
The main classical course of the department in his presentation was very
rich and dynamic. Even using all his methodological
materials of this level can not be reached. And kept for many years
his disciples have the memory of the Teacher.
Great and interesting work was done, but it did not go away
warmth and harmony: a large beloved and loving family, with a rare
mutual understanding and care. And the children of Vyacheslav Danilovich, following the example
father, graduated from the department 202.
Everything was together: travel, beloved Seliger, even mountain

skiing got up with his son.
In the house of Vyacheslav Danilovich and Rufina Ivanovna there are always friends
there were many friends for life, and the children of friends were together.
How interesting it was to listen to B.A. Sokolova, S.A. Dubenza, A.S.
Dushkina, V.M. Kudryavtseva, V.M. Polyaev. These were living history lessons
techniques not retold, but experienced. Without pathos, very businesslike
this war-hardened generation worked for the Motherland.
Vyacheslav Danilovich worked until the last day, courageously
undergoing a severe illness.

14. INTERRUPTED BUT NOT FORGOTTEN DIRECTIONS.
Organization in 1953 of the department "Rocket engines" headed by

Professor A.V. Kvasnikov led to the need not only
revision of curricula, but also to expand the range of scientific
research work. Particularly since 1954. was singled out
group for the training of specialists for the development of nuclear missiles
engines (YARD). There were also contracts with industry for
similar topic.
Since the author of this article happened directly

participate in work in this direction, then you can trace it
development on the example of the release of the nuclear group in 1960.
Special subjects were read to us by well-known experts from

industry: course "Neutron physics" - T.N. Zubarev, course
"Heating apparatus" - N.N. Ponomarev - Stepnoy, course "Radiation
protection "- V.N. Stepanov and others.
Graduates of this specialty were sent to work in

organizations: KB Energomash, KBKhA, Krasnaya Zvezda, IAE them.
I.V.Kurchatova, NII TVEL and others.
The ideologist of the developments of the YARD was V.M. Ievlev, head
department of NIITP (now the M.V. Keldysh Research Center). Your graduation projects
we performed under his leadership in the group of A.B. Prishletsov. Nuclear
power plant consisting of a gas-phase nuclear reactor
(Diploma winner A.Volkov) and DC generator (Diploma winner
A. Kozlov), aroused genuine interest and a large number
questions that could not always be answered. After all, it was
64
first attempt to present the design of a high-temperature nuclear

power plant (NPP).
A few years later (1962) we designed in the Salyut Design Bureau

setting the NRE "scheme A" (with a solid core) to the fourth
stage of the Proton launch vehicle being developed at that time in the department of V.K. Karraska (
department of ballistic calculations). Multigroup calculation of nuclear

reactor was carried out on mechanical computers.
Ballistic calculations were carried out on the Ural computer. In connection with
Due to the limited speed of the computer, calculations were carried out both day and night.
Initial data were entered using perforated cards. Think,

that modern graduates of the department are unaware of
computing facilities that existed at the time.
After separation in 1960. department "Rocket engines" department

202 (LPRE, YARD and solid propellant rocket engines) began to be led by Professor Rutovsky N.B.,
Department 208 (ERD) - Professor Kvasnikov A.V.
In the 1960s and 1970s, very

favorable conditions for fruitful cooperation
industry and universities: industry was interested in
training of specialists and university science, universities received
funding from industry and participated in promising
programs. Delegations of foreign universities that visited us
frankly envied our education system, including ties with
industrial organizations.
During these years, the first nuclear missile was developed at KBKhA.
engine with a solid-phase core (RD-0410), and in NPO
Energomash carried out work on the gas-phase NRE. Department 202 hosted
active participation in these activities.
65
So the group of Professor V.A. Tselikov carried out work on

modeling of flows in hydrogen tracts of NRE on heavy gases
(freons), a stand with the appropriate measuring equipment was created.
This direction was subsequently awarded the State Prize
(MAI and KB ENERGOMASH).
Under the guidance of Professor Rutovsky N.B. were completed

researches of control systems of YARD. Somewhat later, under his own
the leadership at the department created a vacuum test stand
LRE MT on self-igniting long-term fuel components,
which operated until 1990. In addition to research work on
The stand tested MT LRE produced by KB KHIMMASH and TMKB Soyuz.
On the instructions of NPO Energomash, in which the department of Glinnik R.A.

developed a nuclear rocket engine with a gas-phase active zone, a group of professor
Kozlova A.A. two contracts were completed:
- "Research of the gas control system of the YRD",
- "Investigation of the cold stage of launching a gas-phase NRE".
The essence of the second theme was to create a critical mass

fissile powder in a fixed volume and
maintaining this mass during warm-up after the start of the chain
nuclear fission reactions.
Of course, we did not work with uranium-U92235, it was simulated

similar in density to powdered tungsten, but physical
cold start requirements were maintained. Should have been entered into
cylindrical volume given mass of powder, evenly
distribute it by volume and store this distribution in the field
gravity.
66
I had to study and use theory in the filing system

fluidization and flow of a fluidized two-phase mixture along
pipelines and devices for blowing into the working cavity. maintenance
heavy powder in the gravity field was implemented using a powerful
emitter that created an acoustic field opposite to the strength
direction gravity. Acoustic field flow around solid particles

create lift to balance the force of gravity.
To control the density of powder distribution by volume

cylindrical cavity, a unique measuring
a system based on a radioisotope (Tu170) nine-channel emitter.
Three isotope containers were placed on three sections in height
cylindrical "TVEL". Each source had three channels in one
planes with ÿ-radiation receivers on the opposite side
TVEL. To ensure the safety of working with radioactive
isotopes, the entire installation was surrounded by a protective wall with
sliding door.
The results of density measurements were recorded on an analog

COMPUTER. After numerous experiments and correction of blowing units according to
direction of the introduced two-phase mixture was obtained
satisfactory density distribution of the tungsten powder.
Theoretical model of the interaction of an acoustic wave with solid
particles became the basis of the Ph.D. thesis of the leading engineer
L.G. Aleksandrov, who is now successfully working in the NPO. Lavochkin.
The latest work of the department in the field of nuclear energy was
project "Removal of radioactive waste from nuclear power plants into deep space
by means of rocket and space technology” (1994). Was designed
project of an oxygen-hydrogen upper stage with containers
67
concentrated radioactive waste liquid circuits of nuclear power plants.

Preparation and equipment of containers was designed by R.B. Sharafutdinov,
employee of the Research Center for Nuclear and Radiation Safety
STATE NUCLEAR SUPERVISION.
The upper stage was designed to remove containers from the Earth
and a long stay there for the decay of radioisotopes.
Taking into account the main components of the adopted concept

(safety, acceptable cost, project feasibility)
set of priorities, an upper stage for oxygen was chosen
hydrogen fuel components (P = 40 kN, Iÿ = 4750 m/s, md.c. = 2.8 kg/kN,
ÿVchar I = 4000 m/s) and pre-acceleration solid propellant rocket motor (P = 60 kN, Iÿ = 3100 m/s, ÿeng = 0.12,
ÿVchar II = 500 m/s). A pre-accelerating solid propellant rocket engine could be used to save
block of containers in the event of an emergency at the stage

launching the launch vehicle into a low reference orbit of the Earth.
Thus, the concept and technical

a proposal to dispose of highly hazardous and long-lived radioactive waste from nuclear power plants in
deep space with a cargo flow of 22.5 tons / year. Using

disposable launch vehicles of the Proton type for the delivery of containers
to low satellite orbit will require from 37 to 112.5 million dollars or from 0.12 to
0.4% of the cost of electricity generated by nuclear power plants.
The total cost of the project will be from 2.75 to

9.67% of the value generated at nuclear power plants and energy
electricity installations. Costs can be significantly reduced
using international cooperation. Economic
calculations were performed by M.A. Beck.
68
At the same time, the problem of removing from the Earth especially
dangerous and long-lived radioisotopes and radiation
environmental safety.
The results of the completed project were published in the Bulletin

MAI, v.1 1994 and presented at the 22nd International Symposium on
space science and technology in Japan in 2000.
The second half of the 80s was not easy for the entire university
Sciences. Enterprises of the rocket and space industry were financed from
high stress and delay in payment for work already completed.
The department of "Rocket engines" also fell "under distribution". However,
thanks to our strong relationships with industry, we
received several orders for new developments. Among them were:
-development of the experimental installation "Volna" for

studies of fluid behavior in microgravity conditions;
-conversion development of environmentally friendly fumigation

cameras FK MAI-202.
The first work corresponded to one of the traditional

directions of the department - "Theoretical and experimental
study of intra-tank processes”. Experimental work
were carried out on the automated stand "Model" with hot
pressurized tank. Traditional customers were KB Salyut, research institutes
KHIMMASH (now SIC RCP). Mathematical models of intratank
processes were verified on their own experiments and
experiments of the Research Institute Khimmash on full-scale objects. RAVNUP program
for the calculation of intra-tank processes was registered in OFAP IOM

(industry fund of algorithms and programs). Great job in this
69
direction was done by the leading engineer S.N. Chekryzhov, programmers

Yu.B.Elyanov, E.N.Zheleznikova.
The second work was funded and carried out for the benefit of three
leading organizations in the industry: RSC ENERGY, KB SALUT, NPO im.
Lavochkin.
The Volna installation contained two transparent

spherical tank mounted on a rotating rod, pump,
electric actuators, flexible pipes, valves, organs
management. Four capillary intake devices (KZU), including
KZU MAI, and measuring instruments were subject to testing under conditions
microgravity under various internal and external influences.
Manufactured and tested in bench conditions installation "Volna-1"
passed tests in weightlessness (13sec.) on a Flying
laboratories (IL-18 aircraft).
As a working fluid in experiments at the Flying Laboratory

ethyl alcohol was used. To our initial surprise
there were frequent spills of alcohol that required an additional supply
working body. Careful analysis of the situation explained to us the reason
"straits" and eliminated the need to look for leaks in
power supply system of the model plant.
The working stage of the operation of the Volna-2 installation was its flight
on the MIR space station (KVANT MODULE).
Cosmonaut S.K. Krikalev carried out a series of planned

experiments, which was recorded on a movie camera.
70

Cosmonaut S.K. Krikalev works with the Volna-2 installation.
The experiments allowed the developers to make adjustments to

edited a video film with text and
sound accompaniment. Even after almost 30 years

Experiment on the installation "Volna-2".
The late 80s and early 90s were extremely difficult
period for the country. The transition to a "market" economy manifested itself
a strong blow to industrial organizations, research institutes and universities.
Loss of funding, outflow of qualified personnel from universities
became commonplace in those years. Chair 202 also had to deal with
72
conversion developments that are not directly related to
main specialty.
An interesting direction that has not lost its relevance until
present time, the development of an environmentally friendly
fumigation plant.
Fumigation unit FK MAI-202 is designed for
disinfection and disinsection in the environment of poisonous gases of a wide range

objects:
- museum exhibits (paintings, antiques, clothes, furniture, etc.),
- printed and handwritten products (books, manuscripts, documents and
etc.),
- products of the woodworking complex (environmental
clearing the forest)
- products of the agro-industrial complex (vegetables, fruits, berries
etc.),
- consumer goods (clothes, shoes).
73
Fumigation unit FK MAI-202
As a result of processing, fungi and mold, insects are destroyed

and microorganisms that destroy the processed objects and, thereby,
their functionality is preserved.
Environmentally friendly Fumigation unit FK MAI-202

developed in 1991-1994 on the instructions of the Ministry of Culture of the RSFSR for
State Hermitage and with the participation of several organizations of the military-industrial complex
(NPO "LIGHTNING", TMZ). FC MAI-202 is the world's first environmentally friendly
clean fumigation plant. Assembly and technological testing

its components and assemblies were produced at the Moscow Aviation Institute. Significant financial
The project was supported by Atomenergoexport (and personally by A.S. Gavrikov).
Ecological cleanliness of FC MAI-202 is ensured by a closed

processing cycle and the presence of 2 subsystems for purification from methyl bromide:
freezing system and afterburner with the addition of a neutralizer
(K2SO3 solution).
74
The full technological cycle of fumigation is provided by the work

12 different subsystems located in the control unit.
It is noteworthy that the manufacture and assembly of the hull of the FK MAI-202
were produced at the Tushino Machine-Building Plant, in a workshop where
the famous space plane "Buran" was assembled.
Subsystems FK MAI-202
According to the materials of development and experimental refinement

fumigation chamber FC MAI-202 postgraduate student of Professor Kozlova A.A.
NV Zosimovich defended his PhD thesis. Somewhat later
Brazilian graduate student Avandelino Santana Junior completed a series of
experiments on the FU afterburner and defended his thesis in Brazil
(ITA University).
75
Currently, the fumigation unit serves as a training

manual for the new specialty department 202 "Engineering protection
environment".
The scientific direction founded by N.B. Rutovsky and E.V. Soloviev

on the study of working processes in liquid rocket engines of small
thrust (LRE MT) at the turn of the millennium was continued by a group
Professor Kozlov A.A. The virtual absence of domestic
support for university science forced to seek funding for
abroad.
By organizing training for Brazilian propulsion engineers

programs, we have established contacts with the Brazilian Institute
space research INPE and aerospace institute IAE. IN
1998 we signed a contract with INPE for the development of 200N MT LRE for
high-boiling self-igniting fuel components. To that
time, the operation of the vacuum stand was stopped, engineering
the staff quit in search of a decent wage.
The basis of the design of an experimental engine for Brazil

interchangeable plate head, two-component
centrifugal nozzles and a jet curtain of fuel. According to the results
calculations drawings for production were made by Professor Abashev V.M.
76
ZhRDMT MAI-200 engine and its split mixing head.
Multiple camera instances with plate head options

we were made at the NPO Energomash plant. Great help in choosing
mode of diffusion welding was provided to us by the Chief Welder of the enterprise,
.d.t.s. Semenov V.N.
Fire tests on standard components were successful

were held at the Khimmash Research Institute at the stand of A.Ya.Maslov. fire tests on
MMG and N2O4 components were also successfully repeated in INPE at the stand
ÿ Kashiera Pauliste.
It was the first MT LRE developed by our team for

foreign state. In 2000 at the Geneva Motor Show
received a gold medal and a diploma.
In the process of fulfilling the second foreign contract with

Chungnam National University (South Korea) we
modernized the firing stand in box 72 and started work on 500N
77
engine, but already on environmentally friendly fuel components -
highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide and kerosene. Has been mastered
the entire cycle of development of experimental LRE MT: design -
manufacturing - hydraulic tests - fire tests.
The bench power system was supplemented with gaseous
oxygen and methane gas. Developed and implemented
automated control, collection and processing system
experimental data.
The project of experimental oxygen - methane 200N was completed
engine for Beijing Aerospace University (PAU).
Fire tests were carried out this time in Beijing.
Starting from 2010, there were contracts with domestic
organizations. However, the system of payment invented by officials
(unnecessary competitions, delay in payment for completed work, a chain of
State program - Leading organization - Co-executor - Final
Contractor) leads the End Contractor (in this case - MAI)
to the "final" amount of the contract, the rest is cut off along the way. All this from
incompetence (or uncleanliness) of the bureaucracy. But
that's another story.
The country's development priorities have changed, and
priorities of the younger generation. In these difficult conditions, the most
the main condition for the development of university science is the preservation and
augmentation of developed scientific schools and traditions, preservation of personnel
potential.

In the last years of the Great Patriotic War intensified

attention to research in the field of jet aviation and missile

specialists in these relatively new branches of science and technology. IN

1945 at the motor faculty of MAI, a department was organized

engines. Professor A.V. Kvasnikov became the head of the department,

longtime rocket enthusiast.

The main directions of the newly created department were:

-creation of a laboratory base,

- development of curricula and new courses to be taught,

- writing textbooks and manuals.
