In what city was the Tsaga created? Association of State Research Centers “Science. Research experimental base

On December 31, 1925, Moscow’s first and world’s largest wind tunnel began operating here. It was possible to test not only models, but even full-size aircraft fuselages.

The territory of TsAGI swallowed up the lands where the Lutheran Church of St. Michael stood until 1928. It was also called the “Old Mass”. The church was built by order of Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich in 1683, but then rebuilt several times. After TsAGI’s demand to demolish the church building to expand the territory of the institute, believers came out in defense of the temple: they collected hundreds of signatures and sent several letters to the All-Russian Central Executive Committee asking not to close the church. But the building was still destroyed.

After the withdrawal of TsAGI in the Moscow region, its buildings were inherited by the All-Russian Institute of Aviation Materials. Then the VIAM building on the corner of Baumanskaya was transferred to the restoration center named after I.E. Grabar. And in the TsAGI building there remains a museum of N.E. Zhukovsky.

Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute named after Professor N.E. Zhukovsky (part of the Scientific Research Center "Institute named after N.E. Zhukovsky") was founded in 1918. Today TsAGI is the largest state scientific center of the aviation, rocket and space industry of the Russian Federation, where the most complex problems of a fundamental and applied nature in the fields of aero- and hydrodynamics, aeroacoustics, flight dynamics and structural strength of aircraft, as well as industrial aerodynamics are successfully solved. The Institute has a unique experimental base that meets the highest international requirements. TsAGI carries out state examination of all aircraft developed in Russian design bureaus and gives a final conclusion on the possibility and safety of the first flight. TsAGI takes part in the formation of state programs for the development of aviation technology, as well as in the creation of airworthiness standards and regulatory state documents.

Participation in associations

Non-profit partnership "Union of Aviation Industry" of Russia (until April 2009 - International Union of Aviation Industry) is an industry industrial association that promotes the development of the aircraft industry, improving the social and legal status of industry enterprises, providing legal and methodological assistance, protecting the corporate interests of the aviation industry at all legislative levels and executive power, as well as in relevant international organizations. SAP was created in 2002 on the initiative of the leading aviation industrial enterprises of Russia with the support of Rosaviakosmos and the Interstate Aviation Committee and unites more than 80 leading aircraft manufacturing, engine manufacturing, instrument and aggregate manufacturing enterprises, repair plants, design bureaus, research institutes, insurance companies and banks, associations, funds, joint-stock companies related to the aviation industry.

An excerpt characterizing TsAGI

General Armfeld began to speak first, unexpectedly, in order to avoid the difficulty that had arisen, proposing a completely new, inexplicable position away from the St. Petersburg and Moscow roads, on which, in his opinion, the army had to unite and wait for the enemy. It was clear that this plan had been drawn up by Armfeld long ago and that he now presented it not so much with the aim of answering the proposed questions, which this plan did not answer, but with the aim of taking advantage of the opportunity to express it. This was one of the millions of assumptions that could be made just as well as others without any idea of ​​what character the war would take. Some disputed his opinion, some defended it. The young Colonel Toll, more ardently than others, disputed the opinion of the Swedish general and during the argument took out a covered notebook from his side pocket, which he asked permission to read. In a lengthy note, Toll proposed a different campaign plan, completely contrary to both Armfeld’s plan and Pfuel’s plan. Paulucci, objecting to Tol, proposed a plan for moving forward and attacking, which alone, according to him, could lead us out of the unknown and the trap, as he called the Drissky camp, in which we were located. Pfuhl and his translator Wolzogen (his bridge in court relations) remained silent during these disputes. Pfuhl only snorted contemptuously and turned away, showing that he would never stoop to object to the nonsense that he was now hearing. But when Prince Volkonsky, who led the debate, called him to express his opinion, he only said:
- Why ask me? General Armfeld proposed an excellent position with an open rear. Or attack von diesem italienischen Herrn, sehr schon! [this Italian gentleman, very good! (German)] Or retreat. Auch gut. [Also good (German)] Why ask me? - he said. – After all, you yourself know everything better than me. - But when Volkonsky, frowning, said that he was asking his opinion on behalf of the sovereign, Pfuel stood up and, suddenly animated, began to say:
- They ruined everything, confused everything, everyone wanted to know better than me, and now they came to me: how to fix it? Nothing to fix. Everything must be carried out exactly according to the principles I have laid out,” he said, banging his bony fingers on the table. – What is the difficulty? Nonsense, Kinder spiel. [children's toys (German)] - He went up to the map and began to speak quickly, pointing his dry finger at the map and proving that no accident could change the expediency of the Dris camp, that everything was foreseen and that if the enemy really goes around, then the enemy must inevitably be destroyed.
Paulucci, who did not know German, began asking him in French. Wolzogen came to the aid of his principal, who spoke little French, and began to translate his words, barely keeping up with Pfuel, who quickly proved that everything, everything, not only what happened, but everything that could happen, was all foreseen in his plan, and that if there were difficulties now, then the whole fault was only in the fact that everything was not executed exactly. He laughed ironically incessantly, argued, and finally contemptuously abandoned proving, as a mathematician abandons verifying in various ways the correctness of a problem. Wolzogen replaced him, continuing to express his thoughts in French and occasionally saying to Pfuel: “Nicht wahr, Exellenz?” [Isn't that true, Your Excellency? (German)] Pfuhl, like a hot man in battle hitting his own, shouted angrily at Wolzogen:
– Nun ja, was soll denn da noch expliziert werden? [Well, yes, what else is there to interpret? (German)] - Paulucci and Michaud attacked Wolzogen in French in two voices. Armfeld addressed Pfuel in German. Tol explained it in Russian to Prince Volkonsky. Prince Andrei silently listened and observed.
Of all these persons, the embittered, decisive and stupidly self-confident Pfuel most excited the participation of Prince Andrei. He alone, of all the people present here, obviously did not want anything for himself, did not harbor enmity towards anyone, but wanted only one thing - to put into action the plan drawn up according to the theory he had developed over years of work. He was funny, unpleasant in his irony, but at the same time he inspired involuntary respect with his boundless devotion to the idea. In addition, in all the speeches of all the speakers, with the exception of Pfuel, there was one common feature that was not present at the military council in 1805 - it was now, although hidden, a panicky fear of the genius of Napoleon, a fear that was expressed in everyone objection. They assumed everything was possible for Napoleon, waited for him from all sides, and with his terrible name they destroyed each other’s assumptions. Only Pfuhl, it seemed, considered him, Napoleon, to be the same barbarian as all the opponents of his theory. But, in addition to a feeling of respect, Pful instilled in Prince Andrei a feeling of pity. From the tone with which the courtiers treated him, from what Paulucci allowed himself to say to the emperor, but most importantly from the somewhat desperate expression of Pfuel himself, it was clear that others knew and he himself felt that his fall was close. And, despite his self-confidence and German grumpy irony, he was pathetic with his smoothed hair at the temples and tassels sticking out at the back of his head. Apparently, although he hid it under the guise of irritation and contempt, he was in despair because now the only opportunity to test it through vast experience and prove to the whole world the correctness of his theory eluded him.
The debate continued for a long time, and the longer it continued, the more the disputes flared up, reaching the point of shouting and personalities, and the less it was possible to draw any general conclusion from everything that was said. Prince Andrei, listening to this multilingual conversation and these assumptions, plans and refutations and shouts, was only surprised at what they all said. Those thoughts that had long and often occurred to him during his military activities, that there is and cannot be any military science and therefore there cannot be any so-called military genius, now received for him the complete evidence of the truth. “What kind of theory and science could there be in a matter in which the conditions and circumstances are unknown and cannot be determined, in which the strength of the war actors can be even less determined? No one could and cannot know what the position of our and the enemy’s army will be in a day, and no one can know what the strength of this or that detachment will be. Sometimes, when there is no coward in front who will shout: “We are cut off!” - and he will run, and there is a cheerful, brave man in front who will shout: “Hurray! - a detachment of five thousand is worth thirty thousand, as at Shepgraben, and sometimes fifty thousand flee before eight, as at Austerlitz. What kind of science can there be in such a matter, in which, as in any practical matter, nothing can be determined and everything depends on countless conditions, the meaning of which is determined in one minute, about which no one knows when it will come. Armfeld says that our army is cut off, and Paulucci says that we have placed the French army between two fires; Michaud says that the disadvantage of the Dris camp is that the river is behind, and Pfuhl says that this is its strength. Toll proposes one plan, Armfeld proposes another; and everyone is good, and everyone is bad, and the benefits of any situation can only be obvious at the moment when the event occurs. And why does everyone say: a military genius? Is the person who manages to order the delivery of crackers in time and go to the right, to the left, a genius? It is only because military men are invested with splendor and power, and the masses of scoundrels flatter the authorities, giving it unusual qualities of genius, that they are called geniuses. On the contrary, the best generals I have known are stupid or absent-minded people. The best Bagration, - Napoleon himself admitted this. And Bonaparte himself! I remember his smug and limited face on the Austerlitz Field. Not only does a good commander not need genius or any special qualities, but, on the contrary, he needs the absence of the best highest, human qualities - love, poetry, tenderness, philosophical inquisitive doubt. He must be limited, firmly convinced that what he is doing is very important (otherwise he will lack patience), and only then will he be a brave commander. God forbid, if he is a person, he will love someone, feel sorry for him, think about what is fair and what is not. It is clear that from time immemorial the theory of geniuses was falsified for them, because they are the authorities. The credit for the success of military affairs does not depend on them, but on the person in the ranks who shouts: lost, or shouts: hurray! And only in these ranks can you serve with confidence that you are useful!“
So Prince Andrei thought, listening to the talk, and woke up only when Paulucci called him and everyone was already leaving.
The next day, at the review, the sovereign asked Prince Andrei where he wanted to serve, and Prince Andrei lost himself forever in the court world, not asking to remain with the sovereign’s person, but asking permission to serve in the army.

Before the opening of the campaign, Rostov received a letter from his parents, in which, briefly informing him about Natasha’s illness and about the break with Prince Andrei (this break was explained to him by Natasha’s refusal), they again asked him to resign and come home. Nikolai, having received this letter, did not try to ask for leave or resignation, but wrote to his parents that he was very sorry about Natasha’s illness and breakup with her fiancé and that he would do everything possible to fulfill their wishes. He wrote to Sonya separately.
“Dear friend of my soul,” he wrote. “Nothing but honor could keep me from returning to the village.” But now, before the opening of the campaign, I would consider myself dishonest not only to all my comrades, but also to myself, if I preferred my happiness to my duty and love for the fatherland. But this is the last parting. Believe that immediately after the war, if I am alive and everyone loves you, I will drop everything and fly to you to press you forever to my fiery chest.”
Indeed, only the opening of the campaign delayed Rostov and prevented him from coming - as he promised - and marrying Sonya. Otradnensky autumn with hunting and winter with Christmastide and Sonya's love opened to him the prospect of quiet noble joys and tranquility, which he had not known before and which now beckoned him to themselves. “A nice wife, children, a good pack of hounds, dashing ten to twelve packs of greyhounds, a household, neighbors, election service! - he thought. But now there was a campaign, and it was necessary to remain in the regiment. And since this was necessary, Nikolai Rostov, by his nature, was satisfied with the life that he led in the regiment, and managed to make this life pleasant for himself.
Arriving from vacation, joyfully greeted by his comrades, Nikolai was sent for repairs and brought excellent horses from Little Russia, which delighted him and earned him praise from his superiors. In his absence, he was promoted to captain, and when the regiment was put under martial law with an increased complement, he again received his former squadron.
The campaign began, the regiment was moved to Poland, double pay was given, new officers, new people, horses arrived; and, most importantly, that excitedly cheerful mood that accompanies the outbreak of war spread; and Rostov, aware of his advantageous position in the regiment, completely devoted himself to the pleasures and interests of military service, although he knew that sooner or later he would have to leave them.
The troops retreated from Vilna for various complex state, political and tactical reasons. Each step of retreat was accompanied by a complex interplay of interests, conclusions and passions in the main headquarters. For the hussars of the Pavlograd regiment, this entire retreat campaign, in the best part of summer, with sufficient food, was the simplest and most fun thing. They could become despondent, worry and intrigue in the main apartment, but in the deep army they did not ask themselves where and why they were going. If they regretted retreating, it was only because they had to leave a comfortable apartment, a pretty lady. If it occurred to someone that things were bad, then, as a good military man should, the one to whom it occurred to him tried to be cheerful and not think about the general course of affairs, but think about his immediate business. At first they cheerfully stood near Vilna, making acquaintances with Polish landowners and waiting and serving inspections of the sovereign and other senior commanders. Then the order came to retreat to the Sventsyans and destroy the provisions that could not be taken away. Sventsyany was remembered by the hussars only because it was a drunken camp, as the whole army called the Sventsyany camp, and because in Sventsyany there were many complaints against the troops because, taking advantage of the order to take away provisions, they also took horses among the provisions, and carriages and carpets from the Polish gentlemen. Rostov remembered Sventsyany because on the first day of entering this place he replaced the sergeant and could not cope with all the men of the squadron who had drunk too much, who, without his knowledge, took away five barrels of old beer. From Sventsyan they retreated further and further to Drissa, and again retreated from Drissa, already approaching the Russian borders.

Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute

named after Professor N.E. Zhukovsky (TsAGI) is a research institution whose main activity is conducting fundamental, exploratory and applied research in the field of aerodynamics, flight dynamics and aircraft strength. Founded in Moscow by decree of the Supreme Economic Council of December 1, 1918. The initiator of the creation and the first head of the institute was N. E., his closest assistants, the heads of the main departments - S. A. Chaplygin, V. P. Vetchinkin, G. M. Musinyants, G. X. Sabinin, B. S. Stechkin, A. N., K. A. Ushakov, B. N. Yuryev, etc. Many mechanical scientists grew up at TsAGI, who later headed important scientific directions: . A. Dorodnitsyn, M. V. Keldysh, N. E. Kochin, M. A. Lavrentyev, S. A. Khristianovich, etc. Within the walls of TsAGI, a galaxy of airplane and helicopter designers was formed, who then became leaders of independent design teams: . N. Tupolev, A. A. Arkhangelsky, N. I. Kamov, M. L., V. M. Myasishchev, V. M. Petlyakov, A. I. Putilov, P. O. et al.
During the years of restoration and reconstruction of the national economy, the foundations of aviation and other scientific and technical disciplines were created at TsAGI; specific recommendations were developed in the field of construction of aircraft, balloons and airships; The design and construction of the first Soviet all-metal monoplane aircraft was carried out. In 1925, the largest one at that time was put into operation, which made it possible to begin the study of a number of the most important problems in aircraft aerodynamics. Fundamental research on the theory of aircraft wings was carried out at TsAGI; laid the foundations for the application of methods of the theory of elasticity and structural mechanics in solving problems of aircraft structural strength; effective methods for designing propellers have been developed.
Created in the late 20s. TsAGI hydraulic laboratory and provided an experimental base for research in the field of development of hydroaviation, high-speed ships and construction of hydroelectric power stations. At the end of the 20s. - early 30s The construction of experimental rotary-wing aircraft - helicopters and gyroplanes - was launched.
In 1930-41, new research institutions were organized on the basis of departments and laboratories of TsAGI: All-Union Institute of Aviation Materials (VIAM), (CIAM); All-Union Institute of Hydraulic Mechanical Engineering (VIGM), Central Wind Energy Institute (CVEI), Flight Research Institute (LII). In 1937-40, in the village of Stakhanovo near Moscow (now the city of Zhukovsky), a new experimental base of TsAGI was created, including large wind tunnels, high-speed and variable-density tubes, and a complex of installations for researching the strength of aircraft structures. It contributed to the further development of aviation science and the satisfaction of the increasing needs of the design bureau, and made it possible to find more advanced technical solutions and new forms of many elements of aircraft and other aircraft.
During the Great Patriotic War, TsAGI's efforts were aimed at providing assistance to the front and developing theoretical and experimental foundations for the further development of aviation technology. The research results made it possible to increase the speed and strength of combat aircraft, improve their maneuverability, takeoff and landing characteristics, etc. At the beginning of the war, some TsAGI units were evacuated to Kazan and Novosibirsk; in 1946, on the basis of the Novosibirsk branch of TsAGI, the State Siberian Scientific Research Institute of Aviation (SibNIA) was formed. In the post-war period, TsAGI carried out a number of important studies aimed at the radical technical re-equipment of aviation - the creation of aircraft with jet engines flying at transonic and supersonic speeds. At the same time, research was carried out to refine the vortex theory of an airplane propeller and a helicopter's main rotor. The results obtained contributed greatly to the success of Soviet aircraft and helicopter manufacturing.
The results of systematic research by TsAGI in the field of aerodynamics, flight dynamics, static and fatigue strength and aeroelasticity played an important role in the creation of jet and turboprop passenger aircraft. TsAGI solves the problems of increasing the flight range and efficiency of aircraft, their reliability and service life, as well as improving takeoff and landing characteristics. Together with the design bureau, highly economical propellers for powerful theater engines were designed. TsAGI made a significant contribution to the development of designs for multi-role combat aircraft with variable wing sweep in flight.
In the early 90s. The institute had an extensive experimental base that made it possible to conduct research on the aerodynamics of aircraft and the aerodynamics of power plants up to hypersonic speeds, flight dynamics, stability and controllability characteristics, strength and service life of aircraft structures, aircraft acoustics and other areas related to the creation of new aircraft. For this purpose, TsAGI has wind tunnels (some of them, for example T-128, are among the largest in the world), designed for research in various speed ranges; hydraulic channel, ballistic installations, flight stands, halls for endurance and static tests, anechoic and reverberation chambers and many other test benches and experimental installations. Modern technology is widely used to automate experiments, as well as to carry out theoretical calculations.
The Institute publishes printed publications: “Proceedings” (since 1919), “Technical Notes” (since 1932), “Technical Reports” (since 1941), “Scientific Notes” (since 1970), thematic collections, monographs and information materials. The Institute was awarded the Orders of Lenin (1945), the October Revolution (1971), the Red Banner (1933), and the Red Banner of Labor (1926).
