On the basis of energodynamics as a unified theory of nonequilibrium processes of energy transfer and transformation, a theory of similarity of such processes is proposed. It includes dimensionless criteria of efficiency, constructive perfection and load of power plants and the criterial equations connecting these indicators. On its basis, universal load characteristics of thermal and non-thermal, cyclic and non-cyclic, direct and reverse machines are built, reflecting their efficiency with the load and losses from irreversibility. The examples confirming their justice are given.
