Which effect increases when a Newtonian fluid’s flow violates Reynolds equation assumptions?

💡 Explanation

Increased drag occurs because violating the Reynolds equation means increased turbulence, which manifests as larger form drag due to increased energy dissipation; therefore drag increases, rather than stabilizing flow; cavitation and eddy dissipation remain lower.
