Default enrgy equation

I have a doubt regarding the pressure work in the energy equation. The rate of work done on fluid per unit volume = del.(Pv)

Expanding this term => P*(del.v) + v.del(P)

First term ( P*(del.v) ) = Reversible work due to compression/expansion.

So what does the second term (v.del(P)) represent physically.

thanks.

That represents flow work, eg. in turbines
