← ScienceWhich outcome arises when highly viscous fluid flows inside piping?
A)Increased pressure drop along pipe✓
B)Decreased turbulence within fluid
C)Increased momentum energy transport
D)Reduced influence of boundary layers
💡 Explanation
Increased pressure drop results from increased viscous dissipation; energy from the flow converts to heat because viscous forces oppose laminar flow. Thus, the energy required to maintain flow balances the losses rather than maintaining kinetic energy.
