A fluid pump includes a housing that defines a suction chamber, a discharge chamber, and a barrier having a first height, wherein the barrier is configured to separate the suction chamber from the discharge chamber. The pump also includes meshed first and second gears rotatably disposed in the housing. The gears are configured to draw relatively low-pressure fluid from the suction chamber, transform the relatively low-pressure fluid into relatively high-pressure fluid, and release the relatively high-pressure fluid into the discharge chamber. The barrier includes first and second portions configured to accept the first and second gears respectively, and a bridge connecting the first and second portions. The bridge is disposed proximately to where the gears mesh and is configured to provide a transition from the first height to a second height to thereby generate gradual re-expansion of the fluid away from the bridge.
