Which outcome results when exceeding the design limits of a Carnot heat engine?

💡 Explanation

Increased internal friction, turbulence, and component stress will each increase heat generation causing internal engine losses because energy dissipates at a higher rate due to increased disorder; therefore, efficiency plummets rather than remaining perpetually isentropic or reversing fundamentally.
