← TechnologyIn a high-pressure hydraulic actuator system, which outcome is associated with exceeding the net positive suction head (NPSH)?
A)Accelerated component cavitation damage✓
B)Increased fluid bulk modulus
C)Improved actuator response time
D)Decreased system operating temperature
💡 Explanation
Exceeding minimum NPSH induces a phase change, causing bubbles collapse via cavitation, because vapor bubbles form and implode violently on nearby surfaces. Therefore, rapid material erosion results, rather than improvements in fluid properties or temperature reduction.
