Which outcome occurs when a hydraulic flow control valve's damping orifice plugs in a cold environment?

💡 Explanation

Valve oscillation happens because the **pilot damping** is lost, causing instability. Therefore, the valve hunts for its setpoint rather than smoothly controlling flow, because responsiveness decreases negligibly under low temperature alone.
