← ScienceWhich outcome results from sudden pipe constriction inducing turbulence?
A)Increased energy dissipation as heat✓
B)Reduced fluid momentum downstream surge
C)Enhanced laminar boundary layer formation
D)Higher average flow volume rate
💡 Explanation
Increased energy dissipation as heat arise because turbulent flow due to pipe constriction causes **eddy dissipation** that converts kinetic energy to thermal energy; therefore temperature rise occurs, rather than momentum gaining or laminar flow enhancement.
