Abstract

Separation is a fluid dynamic phenomenon that influences the behaviour of a wide variety of liquid and gas flows. The difference between an attached flow and its separated counterpart is demonstrated in Figure 1 where the theoretical streamline pattern, given by the classical solution of the inviscid flow theory1
