← ScienceWhich outcome primarily limits efficient laminar flow within microfluidic fuel cell channels?
A)Increased activation energy requirements
B)Elevated Nernian equilibrium voltage
C)Premature turbulence via rising Reynolds✓
D)Declining electrolyte proton conductivity
💡 Explanation
Premature turbulence limits laminar flow within microfluidic channels because increasing flow rates elevate the Reynolds number; the *increased inertial forces* leads to transition, turbulence and disrupted reactant transport, therefore performance decreases rather than optimal laminar behavior or any electrochemical parameters like conductivity or voltage.
