Which outcome occurs when a jet engine ingests volcanic ash during flight?

💡 Explanation

When a jet engine ingests volcanic ash, abrasion erosion occurs because the ash particles are hard and cause friction against turbine blades, resulting in blade material loss. Therefore, blade erosion results, rather than other issues like detonation, compressor stalls, or nozzle blockages, which involve thermal instability, flow disruption or reduced exhaust efficiency.
