Which limitation arises on a multi-stage turbojet when the compressor reaches its choke point?

A)Reduced mass flow through stalls
B)Increased turbine inlet temperature
C)Higher engine component vibrations
D)Combustion flameout and engine failure

💡 Explanation

Compressor stall occurs because reaching choke point increases pressure, therefore airflow reduces at this threshold, leading to stalls which reduces overall mass flow rather than alternatives; different compressor designs alleviate surge conditions.
