Which flow regime results when Reynolds number increases significantly in aerofoils?

💡 Explanation

Transition to turbulence occurs closer to the leading edge because an increased Reynolds number amplifies instabilities through inertial forces overcoming viscous damping. Therefore, turbulence arises faster, rather than a stable layer, because the ratio promotes disruption before complete stabilization.
