A graduate student from St. Petersburg once again distinguished himself in the final of the Generation of the Future competition

As part of the Youth Day of the International Forum "Russian Energy Week", the final of the All-Russian competition of research papers and graduate studies "Generation of the Future" took place. A graduate student of the Higher School of Technology and Energy of the St. Petersburg State University of Industrial Technology and Design was among the finalists and received a certificate of participation in the final stage.

This is not the first achievement of the project for Yuri. In 2024, he took second place in the Bachelor's Degree category of the Generation of the Future competition. Reaching the finals again two years later reflects the consistent development of his research interests.

Yuri's scientific work is devoted to improving the efficiency of thermal power equipment. In his bachelor's thesis, he investigated the possibility of upgrading boilers by installing turbulators that change the nature of flue gas movement. The research was further developed in the master's thesis.

Participation in the competition allowed Yuri to present the results of his research to the expert community and emphasize the practical importance of the work, which consists in the possibility of using the results in the modernization of hot water boilers, reducing the temperature of exhaust gases and rational use of energy resources. Yuri Ustin is a design engineer for the project support group of the Thermal Calculations and Circuit Solutions Department of Energo Technologiya LLC.

The Russian Energy Week is held with the support of the Government of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation and the Government of Moscow. The Forum is organized by the Roscongress Foundation. The "Generation of the Future" competition is being implemented under the auspices of PJSC Inter RAO and the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship. The event is operated by the Reliable Shift Foundation.
