Which outcome occurs when a gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant experiences surging?

💡 Explanation

Compressor blade stall and flow reversal happens because surging causes unstable airflow due to exceeded pressure ratio within the compressors, a process called compressor surge; therefore, flow reverses, rather than producing turbine creep damage or control valve oscillation because those effects are thermodynamically downstream/different.
