Sheindlin, Aleksandr E., D. Tech. S. Born in 1916 in Kuybyshev. Russian specialist
in heat physics and power engineering. Academician of the Physical Technical
Problems of Power Engioneering Department of the Academy since 1974. In 1937,
he graduated from the Moscow Power Engineering Institute and first worked as an
engineer in a factory and then as an assistant at the institute. From 1945 to 1947, he
worked at the Moscow Power Engineering Institute receiving a doctorate of
technical sciences degree in 1954, becoming a professor in 1955. In 1960, he
became head of a laboratory at the Institute of High Temperatures of the AN SSSR,
becoming the institute's Director in 1961. Since 1967 he has also been head of a
subdepartment of the Moscow Physicotechnical Institute. He directed the
construction and operation of the world's first experimental model magneto
hydrodynamic installation (U-02 in 1964) for the direct conversion of heat energy
into electricity and the first such industrial installation (U-25 in 1971.) From 1961
to 1989, he was Founding-Director of the High Temperatures Institute in Moscow
that was created in 1962 to research thermophysical and electrophysical properties
of matter at high temperatures. It is subordinate to the academy's Physical and
Technical Problems of Power Engineering Department. Lenin Prize, 1959;
Recipient of the State Prize, 1976; Polzunov Prize, 1963. (GSE 29, p. 571.)
