← ScienceWhich outcome results when a viscous fluid's flow rate exceeds a diesel injector's design limits?
A)Increased fuel atomization efficiency
B)Reduced nozzle erosion from cavitation
C)Unpredictable vortex shedding instability✓
D)Enhanced laminar flow stabilization
💡 Explanation
The fuel injector experiences instability when turbulent flow is introduced, because higher speeds violate assumptions in models derived from the Navier-Stokes equations triggering vortex shedding, therefore the spray pattern loses uniformity, rather than producing finer atomization or laminar behavior.
