Which outcome occurs when exhaust Reynolds number surpasses turbine design limits?

A)Heat transfer rate remains constant
B)Laminar boundary layer is sustained
C)Turbulence intensity increases drastically
D)Compressibility effects are negligible

💡 Explanation

Increased exhaust flow leads to a elevated Reynolds number exceeding design thresholds causing transition to turbulence, because pressure-based drag overwhelms surface adhesion; therefore, turbulence increases significantly, rather than causing laminar effects or minimal compressibility.
