Which outcome occurs when cryogenic pump experiences sustained cavitation?

💡 Explanation

When cryogenic pump cavitation happens, vapor bubbles form and collapse due to pressure variations because the fluid is near its boiling point, leading to erosion as microjets impact the impeller surface. Therefore erosion results impairing efficiency, rather than viscosity changes, thermal runaway, or polymerization which are linked to separate mechanisms.
