← ScienceWhich outcome is triggered when oil viscosity fails in hydrostatic transmission?
A)Reduced heat transfer efficiency rating
B)Increased hydraulic lock vulnerability
C)Decreased actuator response time rate✓
D)Elevated flow-induced corrosion potential
💡 Explanation
Reduced viscosity allows increased internal leakage through gaps within the pump and motor due to decreased fluid resistance, manifesting as decreased actuator response time. Therefore, response decays, rather than enhanced flow, because leakage dominates, not pressure.
