← TechnologyWhich risk increases in a hydraulic lift system due to repetitive, rapid cylinder deceleration?
A)Internal valve component cavitation pitting✓
B)Fluid temperature induced shear thickening
C)Increased accumulator precharge optimization
D)Decreased actuator frictional force degradation
💡 Explanation
Repetitive rapid deceleration can cause low-pressure zones leading to vapor bubble formation and thus cavitation at control valve surfaces. These bubbles collapse violently due to ambient conditions, causing pitting, because fluid pressure fluctuates above vapor threshold rather than staying uniform; therefore cavitation risk increases.
