Ever wondered why some cars have tiny shark fins on them? Here's the scoop on vortex generators and how they improve performance!

Vortex generators will be installed on 130 existing JetBlue A320 aircraft and eight JetBlue A321 aircraft during their existing scheduled heavy checks with the full fleet wide install expected to ...

New research from Australia has shown that vortex generators and glass texturing have so far proved to be the most effective solutions among the novel methods explored for lowering the temperature ...

Inspired by the sleek and efficient propulsion of squid, jellyfish and other cephalopods, a University of Colorado at Boulder researcher has designed a new generation of compact vortex generators ...

Lufthansa has taken delivery of its first Airbus A320 with vortex generators, which will reduce the noise produced by aircraft during its final approach by up to two decibels.

Russian researchers are refining the wing design for a proposed short-haul aircraft with overwing-mounted engines, to increase laminar flow. Initial models of the experimental aircraft design ...

By the end of 2021, JetBlue said it will retrofit 138 Airbus A320 aircraft with vortex generators, which reduce noise on landings.

Scientists from the University of Colorado, Boulder have just presented a new design for "vortex generators" that they say can make it easier to maneuver slow-moving underwater vehicles. This new ...

Enter the Evo MR– 27.6 pounds lighter, 5 horse bigger and “vortex generators”. The eight shark fins over the rear window divert air and reduce lift by 35 percent at around 110mph.

The aerodynamic characteristics of the S807 with and without vortex generators are used as the input to the PROP93 and SEACC computer models to simulate the performance of an advanced wind turbine ...
