← ScienceWhich outcome results when latent heat capacity limits ice-slurry cooling?
A)Stable cooling temperatures are consequently maintained
B)Elevated thermal gradients quickly induce cavitation
C)Inefficient energy transfer causes gradual warming✓
D)Pressure drops suddenly due to throttling effects
💡 Explanation
Reduced efficiencies result because phase change requires extensive energy input rather than just changing the temperature through conduction. Therefore, gradual warming results because inefficient energy transfer occurs because the latent heat capacity is limiting, rather than a stable state.
