Where to use reduced bore and full bore?

Use full bore for applications where pressure drop should be minimum (such as in the suction pipe of a pump with required NPSH very close to available NPSH), or for pipes which could be cleaned with a pig (so that the pig doesn't get stuck on the valve). In other applications a reduced bore should be OK.
