Heat Transfer in Microreactors

This lecture covers the principles of heat transfer in microreactors, focusing on homogeneous and segmented flow systems. Topics include estimation of heat transfer coefficients, thermal sensitivity, and multi-injection microreactors for fast exothermic reactions. Different reaction classes and heat production rates are discussed, along with strategies to manage heat for different reaction types. The lecture also explores the design considerations for safe operation and the use of high heat-conducting materials in microreactors.
