Dr. Anatoly Makarov | Tver State Technical University | Russia

Dr. Anatoly Nikolaevich Makarov is a Doctor of Engineering Sciences, Professor, and Honoured Worker of the Higher School of the Russian Federation. He has served as the Head of the Electric Power Supply and Electrical Engineering Department at Tver State Technical University since 1996. He is a leading specialist in power engineering and the author of a scientific discovery recognized with the P.L. Kapitsa Gold Medal “For Scientific Discovery.” His research output includes 65 documents, cited 59 times by 26 other works, with an h-index of 3. He has developed a pioneering theory of heat transfer in electric arc steelmaking furnaces and discovered the laws of thermal radiation from gas volumes of electric arcs and torches—achievements comparable to the classical laws of Stefan, Boltzmann, Wien, and Planck. Based on these discoveries, he formulated a multidisciplinary heat transfer calculation method applied to electric arc and torch furnaces, boiler fireboxes, and combustion chambers of gas turbine plants. His work, documented in monographs, textbooks, and numerous journal articles, is widely used in research and education, shaping advancements in power engineering, metallurgy, heat technology, and applied physics.
