Sergey Alekseenko is a
Russian scientist known for his work in the fields of
thermophysics and energy.
Background
Alekseenko specialized in thermal physics during his studies at
Novosibirsk State University, where he graduated 1972. From 1972-1981 he worked at the
Kutateladze Institute of Thermophysics of the
Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SB RAS). In 1981, he left the Institute of Thermophysics to work as an associate professor at the
Krasnoyarsk State University. He held the position for seven years, before returning to the Institute of Thermophysics to head the Department and Laboratory of Aerodynamics of Power Engineering Equipment. In 1997, Alekseenko became the director of the Kutateladze Institute of Thermophysics. He is renowned for his work on transport phenomena in
