Dr.Sci. (Phys.-Math.), professor
Training
Geny V. Kuznetsov completed his education programme at the Physico-Technical Faculty, Tomsk State University (1973).
Job Title
Head of the Thermology and Heat-Process Engineering Department, Tomsk Polytechnic University, Tomsk, Russia.
Scientific Activities
Prof. Kuznetsov is included in the Federal Register of Experts in the Scientific-and-Engineering Area (expert of the RSF, RFFI, FASO).
Prof. Kuznetsov has developed the physical and theoretical foundations for the design of thermal-protection systems for special-purpose powerplants; mathematical models and methods of predictive modeling of thermal conditions and analysis of the electronics reliability; the theory of heat and mass transfer in heat pipes on the basis of spatial non-linear nonstationary models; a new approach to the analysis of heat energy losses under its transportation and distribution in the heat supply systems for various facilities. He has solved a group of problems on the theory of heat and mass transfer in the thermoprotective and fireproof coatings under deformation; and a group of problems on heat and mass transfer under high-temperature processing of the structural materials to harden their surface layers as a result of the impact of local energy sources.
Honours & Awards
