← ScienceWhich risk increases when supercritical carbon dioxide flows turbulently through process equipment?
A)Enhanced catalytic surface deactivation rate
B)System-wide vibrational fatigue failure✓
C)Increased fluid bulk cavitation events
D)Accelerated uniform material corrosion
💡 Explanation
Vibrational fatigue increases because momentum transfer from turbulent eddies during transitions become rapid, and stress energy increases within equipment walls. Therefore, fatigue accelerates, rather than surface deactivation, general corrosion, or bulk cavitation, which develop through different mechanisms.
