← ScienceWhich flow consequence results when a fluid's Reynolds number significantly exceeds a specific orifice meter's limit?
A)Increased streamline flow predictability
B)Decreased measurement accuracy results✓
C)Enhanced laminar boundary layer
D)Improved coanda effect performance
💡 Explanation
Turbulent flow increases with Reynolds number; this causes increased pressure fluctuations because the assumptions of the meter's calibration are violated due to increased friction, therefore reducing accuracy, rather than improving predicted streamline performance.
