Which risk increases when incorrectly specified control valve generates turbulent flow in a hydraulic actuator circuit?

💡 Explanation

When turbulent flow exists in close proximity to actuator chamber, cavitation caused by pressure fluctuations is much more destructive because imploding microbubbles cause pitting on metal. Therefore cavitation damage results, rather than thermal expansion, slow actuator response, or pump wear that are driven by excessive heating.
