Which problem in hydraulic systems arises when dynamic viscosity prevents accurate equation scaling?

A)Erosion increases due cavitation effect
B)Flow deviates from irrotational modelling
C)Overpressure amplifies water hammer effect
D)Resonance enhances hydraulic amplification factor

💡 Explanation

Deviations emerge because viscosity causes the fluid's boundary layer to thicken, violating assumptions of the Bernoulli Equation which presumes strictly irrotational flow as an assumption; therefore modelling predictions are limited, rather than cavitation or resonance effects which occur due fluid pressure variations.
