Thermal Runaway
A thermal runaway is the situation where a chemical reactor is out of control with respect to temperature and/or pressure production caused by the chemical reaction itself. Simulation of a thermal runaway is usually carried out using a calorimeter device according to accelerated rate calorimetry (Calorimetría de velocidad de Reacción aceleradaThe method describing isothermal and adiabatic test procedures used to detect thermally exothermic decomposition reactions.ARC®).
