Some aspects of three-dimensional separation. I - Streamsurface bifurcations
Abstract
The concepts of separated flows, which may be defined clearly in the two-dimensional case, are extended and defined for three-dimensional steady flows. Local solutions in the vicinity of streamsurface bifurcation lines are obtained for the Navier-Stokes and continuity equations, which describe the features of such flows in terms of local vorticity and pressure derivatives. Simple separated flow configurations are described and classified.
