DEVICE FOR GENERATING VORTICES IN CHANNELS OR PIPES

摘要

A vortex generator device in channels or ducts that makes it possible to take advantage of the wingtip vortex that is formed in the aerodynamic profiles as a consequence of having a finite wingspan. These aerodynamic profiles have one or two marginal edges from which the wingtip vortex emerges, causing the appearance of an oscillatory movement that subjects the particles that travel with the current to an ascending-descending cycle, and has the fundamental advantage that transverse speeds are produced to the main current, with hardly any pressure drops.
