At this point the boundary layer fails to reattach to the airfoil, causing very rapid full chord airflow separation. In other words, this causes a completely separated boundary layer, i.e., a ...

In the case of low-speed aircraft, the performance of low-Reynolds-number airfoils is greatly determined by the relatively feeble separation resistance of the laminar boundary layer. Better ...

This helps them to visually observe the separation and transition ... camber of 4% occurs at the 40% chord point. The layer of air along the airfoil’s surface that experiences the effects ...
