← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when fluid velocity rises in a valve?
A)Turbulence increases, causing more energy loss✓
B)Viscosity reduces due to fluid strain
C)Laminar flow becomes fully pressure-driven
D)Reynolds number consistently remains constant
💡 Explanation
Turbulence intensity increases because higher velocity raises the Reynolds number above a critical threshold level; therefore, turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rises rather than a decrease in viscosity or fully laminar scenarios.
