While underway on a ship with gas turbine engines, the most likely indication of an engine stall is which of the following?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Gas turbine engine stall characteristics • Relationship between combustor temperature, acceleration, and abnormal sounds • How a compressor/engine stall typically presents in real time

💭 Think About

• When a gas turbine stalls, what happens to airflow and combustion, and how might that affect temperature, noise, and engine response? • Which of the listed symptoms is most commonly associated with a sudden, clear indication that something abnormal has happened? • Could more than one of these indications occur together during a stall, and how would that influence your choice among the options?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which symptom is the most characteristic and immediately noticeable sign of a stall in practice. • Consider whether a stall affects only temperature, only acceleration, or can cause multiple simultaneous indications. • Think about which answer choice best reflects overall engine behavior during a stall, not just a single parameter.
