What happens to speed of water in a pipe if the diameter of the pipe is decreased?

Assuming that the pressure remains at a constant, reducing the diameter of the pipe will increase the water flow. On the contrary, increasing the diameter would cause the water to flow at a much slower rate.


Would increasing the diameter of only the accessible part of a heating pipe increase the overall flow through that branch of the system or will it limited to the narrowest non accessible bit?

Flow will only be what comes through at smallest point. Volume will increase, but not flow.


What type of flow will maximize the outlet temperature of a flow of water inside a pipe for a given length and diameter?

Turbulent flow can increase a temp. to some extent


Does exhaust add hp?

Does increasing the diameter of your exhaust pipe leading from the engine increase exhaust flow and therefore lessen engine burden causing an increase in horsepower? The answer for that is yes, but is negligible. Maybe 3-15 horsepower at best.

How do you increase water pressure from a gravity tank by increasing pipe sizes?

you cannot increase the pressure from a gravity tank by changing the pipe size, only the volume of water that will flow in a given period of time. The only way to increase the pressure is to increase the difference between the elevation of the tank and the elevation of the spigot. Many people will confuse an increase in water volume with an increase in water pressure, because, in both cases, more water will flow in a given period of time. ...moreincreasing the pipe size can reduce elevation loss due to friction which can translate in lay mans terms as an "increase in pressure"
