← TechnologyWhich outcome is amplified when a hydraulic valve experiences internal component resonance?
A)Unstable flow rate fluctuations✓
B)Increased fluid bulk modulus
C)Decreased valve response time
D)Reduced actuator stall pressure
💡 Explanation
Unstable flow results because pressure waves constructively interfere due to acoustic resonance within the valve chamber acting as a Helmholtz resonator; therefore, oscillatory flow is observed, rather than a stable pressure which would dampen oscillations at other frequencies.
