← TechnologyWhich outcome results from vapor forming inside an axial piston pump used for hydraulic systems?
A)Reduced volumetric efficiency✓
B)Increased fluid lubricity
C)Higher system operating pressure
D)Decreased servovalve response time
💡 Explanation
When vapor forms inside the pump, cavitation occurs because localized pressure drops below the fluid's vapor pressure, leading to bubbles that reduce the effective displacement. Therefore volumetric efficiency decreases, rather than increased lubricity, higher pressure, or decreased response time which result from different hydraulic phenomena.
