Which consequence results when supersonic airflow detachment around an ogive cylinder?

A)Amplified flow-induced structural vibrations occur
B)Reduced convective heat transfer prevails
C)Increased skin friction drag is diminished
D)Laminar boundary layer thickness increases

💡 Explanation

Amplified induced vibrations result when turbulent boundary layer separation occurs because unsteady pressure fluctuations drive structural resonances, rather than damping. This is because increased energy transfers promote larger-scale vortices; therefore vibrations increases, rather than convective cooling.
