Which risk increases when the swash plate angle controller in an axial piston pump dithers excessively?

A)Reduced overall pump efficiency
B)Increased fluid bulk modulus
C)Decreased system thermal stability
D)Higher servo valve responsiveness

💡 Explanation

Excessive swash plate dither introduces unnecessary flow variations, causing the `leakage amplification` within the pump. Therefore, the pump's energy efficiency is decreased, because the wasted fluid takes energy and creates heat, rather than contributing to the output; rather than increasing bulk modulus.
