Which consequence results when turbine oil viscosity degrades significantly?

A)Increased frictional heating occurs
B)Cavitation erosion rate decreases
C)Improved pump sealing appears
D)Reduced oil aeration emerges

💡 Explanation

Increased frictional heating occurs because the viscous friction increases proportional to the velocity gradient, therefore the bearing temperature escalates rather than reducing cavitation by pressure changes at the surface.
