The more pressure = the more flow = the more wear on your resistance like bends and fittings etc.

What happen to the pressure of gas when the pipe is change from large to small diameter?
The pressure increases as the volume decreases, so when the pipe is changed from large to small, the pressure of the gas will increase.
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"
How do you increase the turning pressure on a spanner?
Fit a length of pipe over it to make it longer.
To increase the hot water pressure to the tap on your kitchen sink any suggestions?
PRESSURE INCREASES are normally effected by raising the height of water supply to increase the downflow. If this is not possible, increase the bore of the supply pipe from your tank.
How do you boost the pressure of 4 inch pipe flow?
You speed up the pump, which increases its pressure on the solid or liquid. Narrowing the pipe does not increase the pressure or flow rate, it only increases the speed at which the liquid or gas passes by a given point.
I have a 17 lb propane tank connected to an 18 inch diameter fire ring in an outdoor fire pit. The flame is small - 1 inch tall. How do I increase the gas pressure to increase the size of the flame?
Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas is directly related to its volume. To increase the output pressure, utilize a way to step down the diameter of the flow pipe. The smaller the pipe, the greater the pressure.
Which direction do you turn the screw on the water pressure regulator to increase volume?
Screw in clockwise to increase pressure, has nothing to do with volume. Volume can only be increased by upsizing the pipe diameters. That's why it is called a pressure reg., not a volume reg.
Does it put pressure on the pipe to turn off toilet valve and not the main water for 2 days?
It does not increase the pressure it remains the same as if the valve was open.
You are building a house Plumber wants to extend pipe one foot above faucets to increase pressure Is this true?
No.
What happens with speed when gases flow from a large pipe to a small one?
Depends on the pipe and the length but mostly the pressure stays the same but the flow will increase more speed.
How to Add water pressure?
In cases where a change in the underground pipe system is not feasible, a bladder system is sometimes used to increase and maintain water pressure. Contact a plumber.
Will the pressure increase or decrease if you put a half inch restriction in a three quarter pipe?
Neither Pressure re mains the same the VOLUME changes along with the VELOCITY
