Which outcome occurs when a cryogenic fluid pump experiences unexpected cavitation?

A)Reduced pump efficiency and performance
B)Improved heat transfer and cooling
C)Increased fluid density and pressure
D)Elevated compressor energy recirculation

💡 Explanation

Cavitation causes pump efficiency to drop because the rapid vaporization forms vapor bubbles; vapor displaces liquid, causing energy losses via turbulent dissipation, therefore reduced pump performance occurs, rather than increased cooling or pressure increase.
