Pressure Drop

Pressure Drop is a physical phenomenon in fluid dynamics characterized by the reduction in pressure of a flowing fluid along a conduit or through a device, specifically distinguishing multiphase or single-phase internal flows due to frictional resistance, gravitational effects, acceleration, or flow obstructions within systems such as pipes, reactors, or separators.
