← ScienceWhich mechanism causes reduced hydraulic actuator speed following prolonged storage?
A)Viscosity increases in hydraulic fluid✓
B)Air dissolves out of the fluid
C)Internal seals excessively swell closed
D)Fluid inertia overcomes pressure losses
💡 Explanation
Hydraulic speed decreases because increasing fluid viscosity impacts flow within the actuator. Polymerization increases viscosity, reducing flow rather than air separating as gas, because seals swelling closed is a separate failure mode.
