Which outcome results when exceeding design temperature during gas turbine Brayton cycle?

A)Reduced turbine blade creep life
B)Increased compressor surge margin
C)Improved combustion chamber stoichiometry
D)Enhanced afterburner thrust efficiency

💡 Explanation

Increased gas temperature leads to reduced blade life because of increased thermal stress driving accelerated blade creep. Therefore, the turbine blades degrade rapidly, rather than causing compressor issues or combustion improvements, especially due to design-limit exceeding.
