What are the potential problems of high velocity in pipes?

Flow velocity seldom causes abrasion problem for concrete pipes. Instead, the particles carried by effluent in high velocity may create abrasion problem of concrete. The abrasive effect is dependent on the size of particles and velocity. In most circumstances, the problem of abrasion shall be avoided for flow velocities less than 8m/s.

Very high velocity (i.e. more than 10m/s) could also induce significant
cavitation problem because air bubbles are formed from low water
pressure and they would collapse when entering a region of high water
pressure.

This question is taken from book named – A Closer Look at Prevailing Civil Engineering Practice – What, Why and How by Vincent T. H. CHU.
