Which outcome occurs when a pressure cooker exceeds design pressure?

💡 Explanation

A catastrophic failure may occur because the vapor pressure increases beyond the safety valve's capacity, leading to rapid vaporization of liquid water and a very fast phase transition due to rapid decompression; therefore venting may not happen controllably, rather than a gradual structural yield.
