Which mechanism causes turbulent flow rather than laminar flow in a hydraulic system surpassing its design limits and pressure?

💡 Explanation

Transition occurs because the Reynolds number increases, leading to turbulence; the mechanism converts kinetic energy to chaotic motion overcoming viscous damping. Therefore, inertial overcomes viscous damping because high fluid speeds dominate dissipation, rather than other surface phenomena.
