← TechnologyWhich consequence results when turbine disk fatigue occurs?
A)Reduced compressor stage efficiency.
B)Blade containment ring fracture.✓
C)Increased bypass ratio at takeoff.
D)Augmented thrust-reverser asymmetry.
💡 Explanation
Blade containment ring overload occurs because fatigue reduces the disk's resistance to centrifugal forces leading to blade release, triggering containment failure rather than other aerodynamic or performance changes since safety systems are stressed past design limits within milliseconds.
