Which impact occurs when increasing steam turbine blade RPM beyond design?

💡 Explanation

Shock waves form because exceeding designed RPM causes blade tips to approach the speed of sound; therefore, increased blade-tip shock risk raises stresses, rather than simply reducing Carnot cycle efficiency, because that is determined by operating temperatures.
