Which acoustic consequence results when hydraulic control valves cavitate?

💡 Explanation

Increased valve operational noise occurs, because cavitation creates vapor bubbles that collapse violently causing noise and vibration due to the implosion events. Therefore, significant noise is audible, rather than a decrease in responsiveness or efficiency, which are longer-term performance results.
