Introduction
Flows with favorable pressure gradient (FPG) and adverse pressure gradient (APG) are of great importance practically and theoretically. In practice, many industrial applications, especially aerodynamics, involve flows with pressure gradients and separation. In theory, wall shear stress does not dominate this type of flow[8].Much remains not understood.
