Which outcome occurs when increasing jet fuel flow through a pipe vastly exceeds the established Reynolds number for laminar flow?

💡 Explanation

Induced cavitation erosion increases because excess flow rates transition flow into turbulence at restrictors which creates low pressure zones promoting bubble formation via Bernoulli principle, therefore cavitation erodes any boundary rather than pressure recovery under laminar flow.
