Which outcome occurs when exceeding the adiabatic cooling limit in liquefaction?

A)Component material embrittlement precipitates failure
B)System reaches reverse saturation point
C)Joule-Thomson coefficient approaches zero
D)Isothermal compression causes uncontrolled boil-off

💡 Explanation

Exceeding cooling causes embrittlement because differential contraction induces stress concentrations at grain boundaries via thermal shock mechanism. Therefore, material fails suddenly, rather than gradual deformation due to exceeding yield stress or reaching boiling point isotherms.
