Which inefficiency occurs due to exhaust throttling in diesel engines?

A)Reduced turbine work output
B)Rotor imbalance vibrations
C)Increased fuel injection duration
D)Elevated cylinder operating temperatures

💡 Explanation

Reduced turbine work arises because exhaust backpressure from throttling decreases the pressure differential across the turbine, reducing its power extraction via the Rankine cycle; therefore, option A is valid, rather than elevated temperatures or fuel changes.
