Which inaccuracy increases when applying Bernoulli's equation to turbulent pipe flow?

A)Kinetic energy term
B)Potential energy term
C)Viscous dissipation term
D)Pressure gradient term

💡 Explanation

Turbulent flow involves significant internal friction. The viscous dissipation term increases because the Bernoulli equation assumes inviscid flow, therefore neglecting losses due to fluid viscosity, rather than losses from pressure differential.
