Three-dimensional Separation

Three-Dimensional Separation is a flow separation phenomenon characterized by the departure of a fluid boundary layer from a surface in multiple spatial directions, distinguished from two-dimensional separation by the presence of significant spanwise and streamwise gradients in the separating shear layer, leading to complex vortex structures and horseshoe vortices typically observed near corners, junctions, or around three-dimensional bluff bodies.
