Submerged vortex generator |
摘要 |
A vortex generator may include a depression in an aerodynamic surface, and a vortex generator leading edge located in the depression. The vortex generator leading edge may include a leading edge upper surface. The leading edge upper surface may be positioned at or below a tangent line defined at a location along the aerodynamic surface upstream of the depression relative to an oncoming local flow. |

1. A vortex generator, comprising:
a depression in an aerodynamic surface of a vehicle movable through an oncoming freestream flow; a vortex generator leading edge located in the depression and including a leading edge upper surface; the leading edge upper surface positioned at or below a tangent line defined by a perimeter of the depression; and the vortex generator leading edge generating at least one vortex extending along a direction generally parallel to the freestream flow and an oncoming local flow when the vortex is viewed along a direction normal to the aerodynamic surface. |
