← ScienceWhich risk increases when saturated steam cools isobarically?
A)Impeller cavitation risk escalates sharply
B)Turbine blade erosion accelerates intensely✓
C)Reheater tube rupture probability amplifies
D)Superheater material creep accelerates rapidly
💡 Explanation
Droplets form via condensation because the phase transition from steam to liquid causes moisture; therefore, erosion accelerates rather than cavitation, which demands flow or creep due to prolonged, elevated temperatures and pressures.
