← TechnologyWhich failure mode could occur from excessive duty-cycles in solenoid valves?
A)Valve poppet thermal softening✓
B)Increased fluid momentum transfer
C)Electromagnetic interference propagation
D)Reduced overall turbulence dissipation
💡 Explanation
Valve poppet thermal softening occurs from high duty-cycles because increased heat accumulates in the solenoid, causing material fatigue, therefore, the valve won't actuate reliably rather than failing due to other electro-mechanical effects.
