Which consequence results when transonic airflow encounters adverse pressure gradients?

💡 Explanation

Flow reversal occurs because separation becomes dominant due to increased adverse pressure, triggering turbulent flow, increasing momentum near the wall through the mechanism of momentum diffusion; therefore, separation will occur, rather than improved aerodynamic heating because compressibility effects dominate.
