Which effect results when lubricating turbine oil contains contaminants?

💡 Explanation

Contaminants increase fluid microviscosity at contact surfaces, causing adhesive wear due to increased friction with decreased film thickness. This microabrasion increases component wear; therefore, contaminants will not enhance cooling, rather than other fluid properties remaining nominal.
