Does stepping down the size of pipe on irrigation bring up the pressure?

Stepping down the size of a pipe on irrigation can certainly bring up the pressure. Generally, the larger the pipe, the lower the pressure. It is best to use at least a 3/4" pipe in size in terms of irrigation.

Why is your cold water pressure low but hot water pressure is fine?
Sounds like your main line coming in is small if it's 1/2 inch stepping it up to 3/4 coming in then down to 1/2 inch would increase your pressure
How long will a 4 cfm air drill last on 100 gallon tank pressurized at 3000 psi with a regulator stepping it down at 90 psi?
well, 100 gallons at 3000 psi is 3333 gallons at 90 psi, which is 443 cubic feet, or 110 minutes. However, most air tools are rated for cfm's at atmospheric pressure, which is 14.7 psi at the surface, so 2714 minutes. This is average usage, not continuous, but still quite a long time. Now, if you go down 33 feet, the pressure doubles, so you have to cut the time down - the actually calculation is hazy, as the ambient pressure doubles, but the pressure differential does not - however, you will need to increase the pressure going to the tool by 15 psi for every 30 feet of depth, or else it won't work right.
How to turn down water pressure?

Why do transmission lines use alternating current?
Transmission lines use alternating current in order to support stepping-up and stepping-down of the voltage with transformers. Voltage is stepped-up at the power station, sent over the transmission lines, and stepped-down at the receiver. (This is a simplified explanation.) By stepping-up, you reduce the current carrying requirement of the lines, and they can thus be smaller.You could not do this with direct current as transformers only work for alternating current.

WHY IS MY 2004 Nissan Armada OIL PRESSURE GAUGE MOVING TO HIGH WHEN ITS RUNNING AND GOES DOWN GOING TOWARDS THE MIDDLE WHEN I'M ON A STOP AND STEPPING ON THE BREAK?
The change in engine rpm effects the volume/pressure the oil pump produces. This is normal.
Did Steve Jobs get cancer?
Yes. He is Now stepping down.
What is the high and low pressure?
meteorology and weather. In high pressure the air presses down with more force than usual. This usually means air is sinking. High pressure systems typically bring calm, clear weather. In low pressure air presses down with less force than usual. This most often indicates rising air. Low pressure systems often bring cloudy or stormy weather.
