← ScienceWhich risk increases when a jet engine's inlet airflow exceeds critical limits?
A)Compressor stall and blade damage✓
B)Stable combustion with efficient fuel
C)Reduced turbine inlet temperatures occur
D)Increased thrust with decreased vibrations
💡 Explanation
Turbulent airflow at high angles of attack will disrupt airflow through the compressor during compressor stall because boundary layer separation. Resulting vibrations damage the engine; therefore stall is likely, rather than stable combustion because excess air won't allow stoichiometric ideal performance.
