← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when exceeding Brayton cycle temperature limits in a jet engine?
A)Reduced turbine blade creep life✓
B)Increased compressor stall margin
C)Elevated fuel consumption efficiency
D)Decreased exhaust NOx formation
💡 Explanation
Exceeding design temperatures accelerates blade creep; because the increased thermal stress drives dislocation climb in the nickel superalloy via vacancy diffusion, therefore the turbine blades deform faster, rather than improved margin or reduced NOx levels under normal operation.
