← ScienceWhich consequence results when assumptions violate Bernoulli's equation inside a centrifugal pump?
A)Increased radial impeller blade loading✓
B)Decreased net positive suction head
C)Cavitation threshold pressure increases
D)Reduced motor shaft torque ripple
💡 Explanation
Increased radial impeller blade loading results because non-ideal fluid behavior violates Bernoulli's assumption of steady flow within the pump, inducing unsteady pressure distributions. Therefore, loading increases, rather than cavitation decreasing because the fluid's properties diverge from ideal behavior.
