Which consequence results when turbine blade erosion accelerates in a closed-cycle OTEC plant?

💡 Explanation

Increased erosion increases surface roughness, which disrupts **the Carnot cycle** temperature differential because it decreases heat transfer and overall efficiency. Therefore, conversion drops rather than increasing productivity or altering chemical balances due to internal leakage.
