Technology

Which risk increases significantly when stage pressures mismatch within a jet turbine?

A)Surge and compressor stall appear
B)Increased thermal fuel consumption occurs
C)Blade creep reduces effective lifespan
D)Generator output oscillates dramatically

💡 Explanation

Mismatched stage pressures create a backflow condition. The mechanism of this is aerodynamic stall, because disruption of airflow creates turbulent, separated flow therefore preventing compression, rather than efficient forward movement and stable power.
