← TechnologyWhich consequence results when a hydraulic pump operates hot, under heavy load?
A)Localized pump component cavitation occurs✓
B)Volumetric efficiency improvement is boosted
C)Steady positive displacement pumping follows
D)Sealing viscosity properties are maintained
💡 Explanation
Localized cavitation occurs because hot oil reduces vapor pressure, promoting vapor bubble formation as fluid accelerates into the low-pressure zones of the pump, therefore cavitation erodes and damages components rather than improving pump efficiency or maintaining ideal conditions.
