← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when water jet cutters experience blockages?
A)Accelerated erosion of the nozzle✓
B)Decreased abrasive particle velocity
C)Increased frequency of nozzle cleaning
D)Lower cutting head traverse speed
💡 Explanation
When a blockage constricts flow, the pressure drop downstream becomes extreme leading to violent vapor bubble implosion called "cavitation erosion". Because this process mechanically attacks the nozzle, its wear accelerates rather than other changes, therefore A.
