← ScienceWhich consequence results when a turbine engine experiences surging?
A)Compressor stalls disrupt airflow✓
B)Reduced fuel efficiency stabilizes output
C)Increased combustion leads smooth operation
D)Exhaust temperature directly limits cooling
💡 Explanation
Compressor stall occurs because exceeding the surge line causes flow reversal which rapidly decreases pressure and disrupts combustion; therefore, surging drastically lowers engine performance through compressor stalls, rather than smoothing operation by increased combustion.
