growth medium temperature, and transport of nutrients. The need to dissipate heat results in numerous heavy_x000D_
and bulky heat sinks mounted in various locations around the reactor. Combined, the set of LED arrays and_x000D_
thermal management structures have a significant impact on PBR cost and weight. The goal of this project is to_x000D_
improve the cost effectiveness of Industrial Plankton PBRs by optimizing the thermal and fluid dynamic_x000D_
