← ScienceWhich behavior indicates increased flow-induced pipeline corrosion, due to disruption of flow?
A)Increased turbulent kinetic energy✓
B)Decreased surface roughness factor
C)Elevated hydrostatic pressure values
D)Decreased fluid dynamic viscosity
💡 Explanation
Increased turbulent kinetic energy near pipe walls accelerates corrosion because increased wall shear stress causes erosion; therefore, option A is right rather than other factors such as pressure altering uniform corrosion rates without promoting localized material removal from increased turbulence.
