Which risk increases when using the Navier-Stokes equations to simulate turbulent flow in a microfluidic device at elevated temperature?

💡 Explanation

The violation of the incompressibility assumption increases. Navier-Stokes assumes constant density, but at elevated temperature, density fluctuates due to thermal expansion; therefore, this weakens the solution, rather than other effects caused by greater viscous forces alone.
