Ewald Emiljewitsch Spielrain
Ewald Emiljewitsch Spielrain ( Russian Эвальд Эмильевич Шпильрайн ; born July 9, 1926 in Rostov-on-Don ; † March 31, 2009 in Moscow ) was a Russian physicist and university professor .
Life
Spielrain's father was the biologist Emil Nikolajewitsch Spielrain , who was shot in Rostov-on-Don during the Stalin purges in 1937. His uncle, the psychologists and linguists Isaac Naftulowitsch Spielrein and mathematician January Nikolayevich Spielrein were also in 1937 and 1938 killed, while his aunt, the psychoanalyst Sabina Spielrein during the German-Soviet war during the second occupation of Rostov-on-Don by the Wehrmacht as Jewish woman was shot with her daughters.
Spielrain graduated from the Moscow Energy Institute (MEN) in 1948 . 1952–1954 he worked in Berjosowski at the EnergoZwetMet plant , which produced heating systems for the metallurgical industry. In 1956 he returned to MEN as an assistant to the chair for thermal physics , where he also became a lecturer . He was involved in the creation of the High Temperature Laboratory , which then became the High Temperature Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (AN-SSSR) . From 1961 he also worked there alongside his scientific work at MEN. In 1964 he successfully defended his dissertation for a doctorate in technical sciences .
Spielrain's main focus was on investigating the thermal properties of materials including coolants at high temperatures, new methods of energy conversion , the use of alternative energies and the hydrogen economy . Spielrain was the chairman of the Scientific Council for Renewable Energy of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAN) , the National Committee of the RAN for the Thermal Properties of Materials and the Scientific Council for Non-Traditional Energy Technology of the Ministry of Science of the Russian Federation and the RAN, and a member of the Scientific Council for Thermal physics and thermal energy technology at RAN. He headed the RAN's program of basic research in the field of basic problems in power engineering, and he was the executive director of the Moscow International Power Engineering Club.
In 1997, Spielrain became a corresponding member of RAN.
