Which consequence results when a control valve experiences severe cavitation?

💡 Explanation

Severe cavitation induces rapid erosion because vapor bubbles collapse violently near the valve surfaces during **nucleate boiling**, acting like micro-jets. Therefore material is removed, rather than dampened vibrations, because energy dissipates locally due to implosion.
