Grinevetsky, Vasily Ignatievich

Vasily Ignatievich Grinevetsky was born on June 2 (14), 1871 in Kiev , in the family of a railway employee, state adviser Ignatius Feliksovich Grinevetsky, who belonged to an old noble family, and his wife Ekaterina Vasilyevna - daughter of Admiral Vasily Stepanovich Zavoyko , organizer during the Crimean War of 1853— 1856 successful defense of Petropavlovsk and Kamchatka from the forces of the Anglo-French fleet ^[1] .

He received his secondary education at the Kazan Real School (1889). In 1896 he graduated from the Imperial Moscow Technical School and remained with him as a teacher in the design of machine parts and cranes. Since 1900 - associate professor, since 1904 - professor, since 1914 - director of the school.

Professor V. I. Grinevetsky, along with K. V. Kirsch, became the founder of the Moscow Scientific Thermotechnical School ^[2] .

He presented the project of transforming the Moscow Technical School into a higher school of the polytechnic type. He proposed in 1916 a project for the reform of vocational education, where he defended the need to strengthen specialization. After the revolution, he opposed the transfer of technical educational institutions to the People's Commissariat .

He studied the working processes taking place in steam engines , boiler units and internal combustion engines . In 1905, he developed a thermal calculation scheme for the boiler based on the correct idea of ​​heat transfer processes, and in 1906, the theory of economic calculation of the steam engine working process. He was also engaged in the reconstruction of the steam facilities of textile factories , introducing combined heat-power plants of high efficiency on them.

For the first time in the world in 1907, he proposed the thermal calculation of an internal combustion engine , which still underlies the design and analysis of the working processes of these engines. In 1906, he proposed the design of a two-stroke double-expansion internal combustion engine . In 1909, an engine designed for a diesel locomotive was built . During testing, the engine gave positive results. Vasily Ignatievich in his book “The Problem of the Locomotive and its Importance for Russia” (1918) outlined the ways of designing the locomotives.

In his book “Postwar prospects for Russian industry” (1918), published in Kharkov , where V. I. Grinevetsky left Moscow, argued that the restoration and development of industry is impossible without the restoration of the capitalist system and without attracting foreign capital. At the same time, he proposed a detailed plan for the restoration of the ruined economy of Russia and its general reconstruction along with a list of specific technical and economic problems that must be solved in the first place. Many of the provisions put forward by him were used in the GOELRO plan . The book itself, at the direction of the Press Department of the Central Committee of the RCP (B.), Was reprinted in 1922 in Moscow by the Central Union of Consumer Societies ^[1] .

V. I. Grinevetsky died in March 1919 in Yekaterinodar from typhus , complicated by inflammation of the brain; there he is buried ^[1] .

In 1921, V. I. Lenin supported the proposal of Professor L. K. Ramzin on the creation of the V. I. Grinevetsky and K. V. Kirsh Thermal Energy Research Institute (in the future, VTI named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky ) ^{[2 ]} . On July 13, 1921, the Council of Labor and Defense decided: “To pay tribute and perpetuate the memory of the founders and chief executives of the Moscow School of Heat Engineering, establish a heat engineering institute, naming it the “ Heat Engineering Institute named after Professors V. I. Grinevetsky and K. V. Kirsh “ ” ^{[ 1]} . The first director of this institute was Ramzin ^[2] .
