The 13 pages that link to Flow separation, each with the reason it gives.

• AerodynamicsRelated: Separation can sharply increase drag and reduce lift.

• Angle of attackRelated: Rising angle of attack can create an adverse pressure gradient that separates airflow from the wing.

• AirfoilRelated: Separation disrupts orderly flow over an airfoil and can sharply reduce lift.

• Aerodynamic dragRelated: Separation changes rear pressure and can sharply increase pressure drag.

• Dead zoneRelated: Separated flow behind walls or obstacles can enclose slowly exchanging regions.

• StreamlineRelated: Streamline plots help locate where attached flow turns away from a surface.

• Automotive aerodynamicsRelated: Rear-end separation produces much of the pressure drag on bluff vehicle bodies.

• StreamliningRelated: Streamlined shapes delay separation and shrink the wake.

• BedformRelated: Flow separates behind steep bedform crests, shaping lee-side deposition and turbulence.

• Flow visualizationRelated: Visual patterns help locate separation and identify its changing behavior.

• Aircraft fairingRelated: Poorly shaped fairings can trigger separation and increase pressure drag.

• Leading-edge slatRelated: Slats delay the separation that would otherwise limit lift at high angles of attack.
