Concepts and alternative scenarios <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> long-term development <strong>of</strong> electric utility industry<br />

<strong>of</strong> Russia and its regions, trends and regularities <strong>of</strong> its development considering<br />

<strong>the</strong> economic, social, environmental and o<strong>the</strong>r fac<strong>to</strong>rs.<br />

Potentialities, efficiency and problems <strong>of</strong> creation and operation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> interstate<br />

interconnections, <strong>the</strong> euro-asian and world electric power systems.<br />

The Department cooperates with many federal, regional and local organizations dealing<br />

with electric power. Some <strong>the</strong>oretical works <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Department are supported by<br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>Russian</strong> Foundation <strong>of</strong> Fundamental Researches. The Department has stable<br />

links with many foreign institutions in Germany, Great Britain and <strong>the</strong> USA,<br />

actively participates in <strong>the</strong> work <strong>of</strong> CIGRE, PSCC and so on.<br />

Dr. Iurii N. Kucherov, a leading research worker <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Department, is at <strong>the</strong> Head <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

International Energy Research Labora<strong>to</strong>ry in Budapest, Hungary.<br />

Department <strong>of</strong> Systems for Heat, Water, Oil and Gas Supply (Dept. 50)<br />

Head <strong>of</strong> Department - Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Ana<strong>to</strong>lii P. Merenkov<br />

Labora<strong>to</strong>ry 51 "Pipeline and Hydraulic Systems"<br />

Head <strong>of</strong> Labora<strong>to</strong>ry - Dr. Nikolai N. Novitsky (skii)<br />

Staff - 10 including 4 doc<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

Labora<strong>to</strong>ry 52 "Problems in Development <strong>of</strong> Gas Industry in <strong>the</strong> Fuel and Energy<br />

Complex"<br />

Head <strong>of</strong> Labora<strong>to</strong>ry - Dr. Nikolai I. Ilkevich<br />

Staff - 4 including 3 doc<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

Labora<strong>to</strong>ry 53 "Heat-Supplying Systems"<br />

Head <strong>of</strong> labora<strong>to</strong>ry - Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Elena V. Sennova<br />

Staff - 8 including 1 pr<strong>of</strong>essor and 3 doc<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

Key scientific problems:<br />

Theory <strong>of</strong> hydraulic circuits and methods <strong>of</strong> ma<strong>the</strong>matical modeling, calculations and<br />

optimization <strong>of</strong> pipeline and o<strong>the</strong>r hydraulic systems <strong>of</strong> different types and<br />

purposes.<br />

Methodological principles, algorithms and information support <strong>to</strong> solve problems <strong>of</strong><br />

development and computerized dispatching control <strong>of</strong> heat, water, oil and gas<br />

supplying systems.<br />

Methods for coordination <strong>of</strong> decisions taken in <strong>the</strong> energy industries with <strong>the</strong> general<br />

strategies <strong>of</strong> fuel and energy supply <strong>to</strong> individual areas, regions and <strong>the</strong> country as<br />

a whole.<br />

The unique scientific-methodological and computational base has been created in <strong>the</strong><br />

Department <strong>to</strong> study and control operation and development <strong>of</strong> pipeline and<br />

hydraulic systems <strong>of</strong> different types and purposes including <strong>the</strong> Unified Gas-<br />

Supplying System, systems <strong>of</strong> main oil pipelines, water supply and <strong>the</strong> heat<br />

economy <strong>of</strong> Russia and its regions which includes data bases on <strong>the</strong> objects <strong>of</strong><br />
