← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when dissolved gas comes out of the solution in a hydraulic system under pressure?
A)Accelerated valve seat erosion✓
B)Increased fluid bulk modulus
C)Decreased actuator response time
D)Reduced thermal expansion of components
💡 Explanation
When pressure drops/changes rapidly the rapid pressure fluctuation in the hydraulic fluid leads to cavitation because gas bubbles form from formerly solved gas; those gas bubbles implode near the valve. Therefore that leads to valve seat erosion since repeated implosions locally deform surfaces rather than other answers.
