Which procedure minimizes control valve cavitation in a high-pressure hydraulic actuator system?

💡 Explanation

When pressure reduction through a control valve is too rapid, cavitation occurs because liquid locally vaporizers leading to bubble formation then collapse causing noise and erosion. Employing several stages of pressure reduction minimizes cavitation because the pressure drop at each stage is reduced. Therefore staging helps not viscosity, temp, or valve type alone.
