← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a turbine overheats past a metallurgical phase's transition temperature?
A)Creep deformation accelerates non-linearly✓
B)Overall grain size becomes refined
C)Reduced susceptibility fatigue crack propagation
D)Elastic modulus increases proportionally
💡 Explanation
High temperature triggers creep due to vacancy diffusion; therefore, the turbine blades deform faster because this diffusion activates Coble Creep, rather than maintaining their original shape at lower temperatures.
