Which outcome follows transition to turbulence above Reynolds number?

A)Increased mixing and heat transfer
B)Reduced drag around streamlined bodies
C)Laminar flow reestablishment downstream
D)Decreased energy dissipation in fluid

💡 Explanation

Increased mixing and heat transfer occurs because turbulent flow undergoes chaotic Eddy formation. This Eddy formation enhances convective transport rather than momentum transfer as it would in laminar flow, therefore the increased effects seen are due to mixing, rather than stable flow
