Heat Management in Single and Multi-injection Microstructured Reactors: Scaling Effects, Stability Analysis, and Role of Mixing

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi, Madhvanand Namadeo Kashid, Julien Haber

The exothermic reactions with fast intrinsic kinetics when carried out in conventional reactors are often limited by heat transfer. This results in the formation of hot spots, which affects product distribution of complex reactions and may lead to reactor ...
