Which consequence results when rapid temperature increase occurs in a rocket engine nozzle?

💡 Explanation

Thermal shock crack propagation occurs during rapid heating because differential thermal expansion creates stress exceeding material strength; therefore, failure results rather than combustion improvements occurring, due to insufficient time for uniform temperature distribution.
