← ScienceWhich consequence results when cavitation-induced turbulence collapses near a propeller?
A)Reduced propeller efficiency overall✓
B)Increased laminar boundary layer adhesion
C)Decreased fuel consumption considerably
D)Enhanced thrust vectoring precision
💡 Explanation
Turbulence in collapsing bubbles erodes the propeller surface via micro-jets. Because of cavitation, momentum dissipates through **turbulent kinetic energy dissipation,** therefore this effect decreases efficiency, rather than enhancing performance as other options might suggest in optimized, non-turbulent, conditions.
