Flow Separation
Flow separation creates the turbulent wakes that shape everything from airplane wings to racing cars

What primarily causes flow separation in a boundary layer over a surface?
The fluid accelerates excessively near the surface, causing it to detach.
The fluid near the surface loses momentum and cannot overcome adverse pressure gradients, causing detachment.
Flow separation occurs only when the surface is perfectly smooth and flat.
