← ScienceWhich outcome results when lubricating oil viscosity decreases inside an axial piston hydraulic pump?
A)Increased internal leakage rate✓
B)Decreased pump volumetric efficiency
C)Elevated fluid film rigidity
D)Reduced wear debris generation
💡 Explanation
Reduced viscosity lowers the oil's resistance to flow. This increases the internal leakage rate because the increased flow exits via gaps, rather than maintaining intended pressure; therefore, internal leakage increases, rather than creating rigid films.
