Which outcome results under laminar-turbulent transition adhering Reynolds number?

A)Increased pipe friction loss occurs
B)Reduced convection heat transfer emerges
C)Molecular diffusion rate decreases sharply
D)Viscosity becomes temperature independent

💡 Explanation

Increased pipe friction loss results due to momentum transfer via turbulent eddies because the transition causes increased chaotic particle mixing (Turbulence), rather than the laminar’s ordered movement; therefore, shear stresses sharply increases, but convection heat transfer changes more gradually.
