← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when exceeding Carnot cycle maximum power?
A)Reduced net energy transfer
B)Increased cycle irreversibilities accrue✓
C)Lower compression related work input
D)Exceeding system design temperature
💡 Explanation
Increased speed introduces inefficiencies. Increased cycle irreversibilities accrue because inertial effects dominate. Therefore cycle efficiency drops, rather than increased power output, at best achieving rated design before failure.
