Which outcome of a liquid passing baffles depends critically on Reynolds number?

A)Onset flow-induced vibration
B)Achieved heat-transfer optimization
C)Erosion increase in laminar region
D)Viscosity variance due temperature shift

💡 Explanation

The critical Reynolds number defines the transition to turbulent flow, thereby inducing more pronounced flow-induced vibration; this mode results because increased fluid momentum excites structural resonances rather than generating predictable laminar forces.
