← ScienceWhich consequence results when rapid vaporization leads to decreased boiler pressure?
A)Foaming carries contaminants along✓
B)Corrosion slows due to decreased temperature
C)Superheating efficiency significantly increases
D)Carryover decreases total solids deposits
💡 Explanation
Foaming occurs because rapid vaporization concentrates solids near the water surface; this increases surface tension, stabilizing bubbles in steam. Therefore, carryover introduces impurities into the steam system, rather than a decrease like in other choices, because it alters flow dynamics.
