Which risk increases if liquid-cooled turbine blades experience Leidenfrost effect?

A)Reduced heat transfer efficiency
B)Increased blade oxidation rate
C)Enhanced vibrational damping
D)Elevated compressive stress profiles

💡 Explanation

Inefficient cooling occurs because the Leidenfrost effect envelops blades in vapor. Thermal conductance sharply drops, therefore reducing heat transfer, rather than improving oxidation resistance due to gas film insulation.
