Which outcome causes increased skin temperature during high-speed flight?

A)Adiabatic heating dominates the process
B)Increased IR transmittance occurs linearly
C)Surface emissivity reduces substantially
D)The laminar flow decreases dramatically

💡 Explanation

Adiabatic heating causes temperature increases at high speeds because air compresses rapidly near the aircraft skin, therefore kinetic energy converts to thermal energy, rather than convective dissipation affecting bulk flow.
