Which risk rapidly increases when cooling a supercritical Brayton cycle engine nearing the critical point?

💡 Explanation

Heat exchanger efficiency is drastically reduced because near the critical point, the isothermal heat transfer mechanism becomes highly sensitive to pressure changes, therefore the overall heat transfer is severely affected, rather than other engine component risks.
