The following code example enumerates through each physical partition of each table in the AdventureWorks2012 database and displays the partitions row count.

C#

Server srv = new Server("(local)");
Database db = srv.Databases["AdventureWorks2012"];

foreach (Table tb in db.Tables) 
{
   Foreach (PhysicalPartition pt in tb.PhysicalPartitions)
   {
      Console.WriteLine(pt.RowCount.ToString());
   }
}

Powershell

$srv = new-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server("(local)")
$db = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database
$db = $srv.Databases.Item("AdventureWorks2012")

Foreach ($tb in $db.Tables) 
{
   Foreach ($pt in $tb.PhysicalPartitions)
   {
      Write-Host $pt.RowCount
   }
}
