    The Symphony SA-160 was designed with two unusual vortex generators on its wing to ensure aileron effectiveness through the stall. A vortex generator (VG) is an aerodynamic device, consisting of a small vane usually attached to a lifting surface (or airfoil, such as an aircraft wing) [1] or a rotor blade of a wind turbine. [2]

    Another important function of bargeboards is to act as vortex generators, redirecting and energizing airflow.The upper, downward sloping edge can shed a large vortex downstream around the sidepods, where it can interact favorably with flip-ups, or aid in sealing the low pressure underbody flow from the ambient stream.

  4. Vortilon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortilon

    When the speed is reduced and the aircraft approaches stall, the local flow at the leading edge is diverted outwards; this spanwise component of velocity around the vortilon creates a vortex streamed around the top surface, which energises the boundary layer. [6] A more turbulent boundary layer, in turn, delays the local flow separation.

    This article seems to give a pretty limited idea of what forms a vortex generator can take. It isn't always a vane on the top of a wing, and it isn't always something separate from the wing. Seems to me that anything that generates a vortex is a vortex generator..45Colt 21:24, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

    This was confirmed during flight tests so small vanes called "vortex generators" were added to prevent airflow separation. [ 27 ] Both XB-47 prototypes were test flown at Edwards AFB; the first XB-47 (46-065) was disassembled and scrapped in 1954, making the second prototype (46-066) the sole surviving XB-47.

    To manage safety and wear of the arena (2), the planned maximum speed of the vortex base (33) is near 3 m/s (10 ft/s). The resulting vortex should resemble a large, slow dust-devil of water-mist more than a violent tornado. In uninhabited areas, faster speeds might be permitted so the vortex can survive in faster ambient winds.

    This was fixed by the addition of several large vortex generators in the inside of the first bend of the duct. Six-abreast seating in an Iran Aseman Airlines Boeing 727. The 727 was designed for smaller airports, so independence from ground facilities was an important requirement.
