← ScienceWhich outcome happens when exceeding headloss limitations in pipelines?
A)Cavitation causes pipe wall collapse
B)Laminar flow becomes more stable
C)Bernoulli's equation loses applicability✓
D)Viscosity gradients become negligible
💡 Explanation
Bernoulli’s equation becomes inaccurate because increased turbulence violates the assumptions of steady, inviscid flow. Therefore, the predicted pressure values deviate considerably from actual values, rather than viscosity or laminar factors being affected because headloss determines these limits.
