← TechnologyWhich risk increases significantly when detonation raises pressure in a combustion chamber?
A)Connecting rod buckling occurs rapidly
B)Piston ring flutter destabilizes compression✓
C)Cylinder head gasket seal degrades
D)Crankshaft torsional vibration amplifies
💡 Explanation
Piston ring flutter increases cavitation erosion because uncontrolled pressure destabilizes the rings; this reduces seal effectiveness, rapidly accelerating wear, therefore risking loss of compression, rather than immediate buckling or vibration issues arising at the crankshaft.
