A partial differential equation (PDE) is a type of mathematical equation that involves partial derivatives of an unknown function with respect to two or more independent variables. Unlike ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which deal with functions of a single variable, PDEs allow for the modeling of phenomena where multiple variables are involved, such as time and space.
