Which consequence results when Bernoulli's equation is misapplied inside a transonic diffuser?

A)Increased boundary layer separation
B)Accelerated exothermic chemical reactions
C)Reduced heat convection efficiency
D)Elevated structural compressive stress

💡 Explanation

Boundary layer separation increases because an adverse pressure gradient arises underestimating compressibility effects; therefore, the flow detaches from the diffuser walls, rather than remaining attached with a gradual deceleration under idealized incompressible cases.
