← TechnologyWhich 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.
