== == In computer programming, the word pipe has several meanings.

To see code and a UML diagram for a programmable (C# .Net) pipe, check out CodeGuru's "Inter-Process Communication in .NET Using Named Pipes, Part 1" ( http://www.codeguru.com/csharp/.net/net_general/patterns/article.php/c7259 ) A pipe is a section of shared memory that enables communication between threads in different processes, otherwise called Inter-Process Communication (IPC). IPC occurs between any thread in any process and possibly even over network and is generally socket based. Both Unix shells and DOS implement the pipe symbol in relation to this kind of function.

The pipe symbol is most commonly recognized as signifying a choice in computer programming (ie: RegEx, C-style languages) but is also significant in other fields (mathematics, as absolute value and divisibility, phonetics, etc..)

Why does the pipe of paper squeezes when air is blown through it?

When air is blown through a pipe of paper, the increased air pressure inside the pipe builds up, causing the paper to bend and squeeze. This is due to the difference in pressure between the air inside the pipe and the air outside. The paper bends to release this pressure and equalize it with the outside air.


Why does pressure drop across a horizontal flow pipe?

Pressure drops across a horizontal flow pipe due to frictional losses caused by the roughness of the pipe walls and the viscosity of the fluid. As the fluid flows through the pipe, it experiences resistance, leading to a decrease in pressure along the pipe's length. Additionally, changes in elevation and fluid velocity can also contribute to pressure drops in a horizontal flow pipe.
