Which risk increases when a control valve in a chemical reactor feed line cycles too rapidly?

💡 Explanation

Rapid valve cycling can cause sudden flow changes; because of fluid inertia the momentum change induces intense pressure spikes by momentum transfer, called pressure amplification or water hammer; therefore pressure increases suddenly, rather than gradual thermal increases affecting overall vessel temperature.
