← ScienceWhich outcome manifests due to downstream turbulence created by cavitation?
A)Increased vessel wall erosion rate✓
B)Decreased propeller efficiency overall
C)Elevated engine operating temperature
D)Reduced fuel consumption at idle
💡 Explanation
Downstream turbulence generates localized vacuum collapses due to cavitation. Flow disruption causes higher impact pressures that increase erosion rates; therefore, wall erosion accelerates rather than temperature increases because heat capacity maintains a stable balance.
