Which consequence results when a hydraulic pump operates hot, under heavy load?

A)Localized pump component cavitation occurs
B)Volumetric efficiency improvement is boosted
C)Steady positive displacement pumping follows
D)Sealing viscosity properties are maintained

💡 Explanation

Localized cavitation occurs because hot oil reduces vapor pressure, promoting vapor bubble formation as fluid accelerates into the low-pressure zones of the pump, therefore cavitation erodes and damages components rather than improving pump efficiency or maintaining ideal conditions.
