← HistoryWhich consequence results when Roman aqueduct lime deposits thicken significantly?
A)Reduced flow rate develops✓
B)Increased wall stress appears
C)Improved thermal stability occurs
D)Enhanced seismic resilience arises
💡 Explanation
A reduced flow rate occurs when lime deposits increase because the flow area reduces, inducing increased frictional LOSs. This is hydraulic diameter reduction, rather than structural failure or environmental stability improvements; therefore only flow is affected.
