Transonic Boundary Layers

Transonic Boundary Layers is a fluid dynamic phenomenon characterized as a thin viscous region adjacent to a solid surface wherein the flow transitions through Mach numbers near unity, distinguished by the coexistence of subsonic and supersonic regions, strong adverse pressure gradients, and shock wave-boundary layer interactions that critically influence aerodynamic performance and flow separation behavior.
