Which risk increases when a cryogenic pump's vacuum insulation fails?

💡 Explanation

A vacuum failure causes warmer external fluid to instantly vaporize within the pump, creating *impulse forces*. This cavitation damages components because localized pressure drops cause phase transition; therefore cavitation increases, rather than other failure modes in mechanically sound cryopumps.
