pressure drag due to seperated flow and skin friction drag. First, on
majority of the drag is pressure drag due to the flow seperating as it

Reynolds numbers you sometimes get what is called a "seperation
bubble". While still laminar, the flow seperates, but then it
trailing edge if properly designed. These seperation bubbles are
the point where the flow would have seperated, to prevent the
formation of the seperation bubble. If well designed and placed, you
towards the rear but without the seperation bubble. The overall drag

Remember that separate has a rat in it.
