← ScienceWhich outcome is caused by exceeding Reynolds number inside rocket engine injectors?
A)Increased propellant mixing before combustion✓
B)Stable laminar propellant flow at all fuel
C)Reduced heat transfer from combustion gases
D)Uniform pressure distribution across injector face
💡 Explanation
Turbulent flow results due to high Reynolds number; therefore, propellant experiences intense mixing, enhancing combustion efficiency because the instabilities present in the flow increase interface area between oxidizer and fuel rather than maintaining laminar pathways.
