Which outcome occurs when designing a high-speed waterjet cutter nozzle near the turbulence threshold?

A)Increased surface finish irregularities
B)Decreased pump energy consumption
C)Elevated nozzle material strength
D)Stable abrasive particle distribution

💡 Explanation

Increased surface finish irregularities occur because the mechanism impacting the jets uniformity is turbulent flow near the threshold of turbulence within the nozzle; therefore material distortion on the cut increases, rather than a consistent cut due to laminar flow.
