Which outcome results when rapid liquid water phase transition?

A)Increased isentropic efficiency steam turbine
B)Cavitation erosion hydraulic pump components
C)Improved heat conduction in PCM
D)Enhanced lubricant viscosity gear lifetime

💡 Explanation

Cavitation erosion accelerates from bubble implosion; therefore damage to pump components increases, via vapor-liquid phase transition because the local pressure drops below water vapor pressure, rather than improved efficiency; this occurs due to fluid mechanics, not thermodynamics.
