Which consequence results when cavitation occurs in fuel?

A)Fuel vaporization rate increases drastically
B)Lean combustion regions reduce significantly
C)Fuel lubricity properties are enhanced
D)Octane number increases considerably

💡 Explanation

Cavitation causes rapid fuel state change because locally decreased pressure triggers vaporization of the fuel aka boiling; therefore, the fuel vaporization rate dramatically increases, rather than enhanced lubricity or improved combustion regions because cavitation induces vapor lock.
