Which consequence results when jet engine Reynolds number increases?

💡 Explanation

Increasing Reynolds number reduces turbulent boundary layer thickness because inertial forces dominate, suppressing viscous damping via increased momentum diffusion; therefore layer thins, rather than thickening or impacting compressor airflow as viscosity influence diminishes.
