A reactor is provided for controlling the temperature of materials undergoing a physical or chemical process. The reactor includes a reactor having a holder adapted to hold a plurality of the materials in a plurality of 2n arrays, each array having two rows of n materials. The reactor further includes a fluid inlet adapted to receive a temperature-modifying fluid and a fluid outlet adapted to discharge the temperature-modifying fluid. The sample holder has a plurality of fluid flow channels configured such that a fluid flow channel is located adjacent to each of the two rows in each of the plurality of 2n arrays. The fluid flow channels are adapted to provide substantially equal flow rates and substantially equal fluid flow volumes as the temperature-modifying fluid travels past the arrays.

Systems, devices, and methods for transferring heat associated with an interface corresponding to a reactor. In some aspects, a system includes a sleeve having a body portion that defines a channel that extends from a first end to a second end of the body portion. The channel is configured to define a flow path that extends through a flange that is coupled to a pipe via a welding point a lip portion extending radially away from the first end and configured to be positioned between the flange and a reactor.
