Detached flow/

Maybe this has been covered before, but if so, i've missed it.
In pictures of teardrops the slope clearly exceeds 12 degrees as it slopes rearward. Yet I thought flow detaches if the slope is steeper than that.
How does flow stay attached as the slope steepens?
I'm wondering about doing a 3 to 4 foot Kammback with gradual slope on a van.
Thanks in advance,
Ray Mac
