← TechnologyWhich consequence results downstream when a flow control valve is improperly calibrated in a hydraulic actuator system?
A)Actuator speed becomes unpredictable✓
B)System bulk modulus sharply increases
C)Fluid’s Reynolds number stays constant
D)Viscosity rises within standard thresholds
💡 Explanation
Unpredictable actuator speed happens because incorrect valve calibration affects the **metering** of hydraulic fluid. Therefore, the linear actuator's movement varies inconsistently rather than achieving controlled, predictable motion under different load demands, because fluid control is disrupted.
