Nikolai Vladimirovich Gutowskoi (also Gutowski ) ( Russian Николай Владимирович Гутовской (Гутовский) ; born January 24 ^{. Jul} / 5. February  1876 ^greg. In Nizhny Novgorod ; † 12. October 1933 in Tomsk ) was a Russian metallurgist , Metallurg and university teachers .

Life

Gutowski's father worked at the St. Petersburg Technology Institute in Nizhny Novgorod, where he became a mechanic in the Nizhny Novgorod governorate and a steam boiler expert . Gutowskoi graduated from the Nizhny Novgorod aristocratic institute of Alexander II and studied from 1895 to 1902 at the St. Petersburg Technology Institute in the mechanics department with a degree as an engineer-technologist. He then worked as an electrical engineer on the Ekaterinburg Railway .

In 1903 Gutowskoi began to work as a junior laboratory assistant in the mechanical workshop of the Tomsk Technology Institute (TTI) , which was headed by Tikhon Ivanovich Tikhonov . In 1904 and 1905 Gutowskoi was sent to Russian smelting works to learn about the production processes there. From 1906 he was seconded to the Technical University of Aachen for three years to study abroad, particularly in Germany . In 1908 he began teaching at the TTI. In 1909 he defended in Aachen successfully completed his doctoral thesis on the theory of melting and hardening of iron - carbon - alloys . He took part in the International Congress for Applied Chemistry in 1909 in London and in 1912 in Washington .

The focus of Gutowski's scientific work was metal science . He further examined the crystallization and microstructure formation of iron - carbon - alloys to ambiguities in the iron-carbon phase diagram to eliminate.

In 1913 Gutowskoi became an advisor to the French - German - Belgian joint stock company Kopikus ( Kuznetsk hard coal mining ), which was founded in 1912 and had a monopoly on hard coal mining in Siberia ( CEO Vladimir Trepov , chief engineer Iossif Fedorowitsch ).

In 1914 Gutowskoi became an associate professor at the TTI. He investigated the possibilities for building a large steel mill in Siberia and carried out the preparatory work. The site of the later Novokuznetsk in Kuzbass was selected for the construction of the plant in 1915 . After the October Revolution , Gutovskoy headed the Council for the Development of the Urals - Kuznetsk - Metallurgy Project. For the development of the metallurgical industry in Siberia, Gutovskoy concentrated on the training of metallurgists. 1921–1930 he was rector of the TTI.

In January 1929, the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the Council of Labor and Defense decided to build the Kuznetsk Metallurgy Combine . In the same year, on Gutowski's initiative, the TTI established the first welding laboratory in Tomsk , which he then headed until 1930. In the Physics and Technology Institute at Tomsk State University, founded in 1928 and headed by Vladimir Kuznetsov , the Research Department for Metals was set up in 1929 , headed by Gutowskoi and from which the All Union Institute for Metals arose. In 1930 the independent Siberian Research Institute for Metals was founded on the basis of Gutowskoi's department, with Gutowskoi as director. In 1931 there were already seven laboratories, an expert office and a mechanical workshop. It became the leading research center for metallurgy, metallurgy, forming and welding in Siberia and the Far East . He continued to teach at the Siberian Institute for Ferrous Metals, which arose from the splitting of the TTI in 1930. When this institute was moved from Tomsk to Novokuznetsk in 1931, he also taught there. The Siberian Research Institute for Metals was moved to Novosibirsk in 1935 .

Gutowskoi died after a serious illness. His grave in the Tomsk Preobrazhenskoye cemetery has not been preserved.
