← ScienceWhich consequence results when blade-tip vortices cause turbulence?
A)Increased aircraft profile drag✓
B)Laminar flow profile improvement
C)Increased boundary layer adhesion
D)Decreased trailing-edge flow separation
💡 Explanation
Increased turbulence at the blade tips will cause induced drag because turbulent mixing dissipates energy into disordered motion, rather than contributing to thrust. Therefore, profile drag increases, rather than flow improvement or reduced separation under normal conditions.
