Abstract

A study is made of the two-dimensional laminar flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in the neighborhood of the point of attachment of the flow to a solid surface. The case of large Reynolds numbers is considered. It is assumed that the dimensions of the separation region are of the same order of magnitude as the characteristic dimension of the body around which the flow takes place. The asymptotic theory of such flow is constructed by applying the method of matched asymptotic expansions to the analysis of the Navier-Stokes equations. It is shown that in the neighborhood of the attachment point the flow is locally inviscid and can be described by the complete system of Euler equations. A solution to the corresponding boundary-value problem is constructed numerically.
