Abstract
Disclosed is a vortex generating device having a body, extending between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The body, in profile cross sections taken across the spanwise direction, exhibits an airfoil-shaped geometry. Each airfoil-shaped profile cross section has a camber line extending from the leading edge to the trailing edge, at least two of the camber lines exhibiting different camber angles, such that the body exhibits at least two different flow deflection angles along the spanwise extent. An imaginary trailing edge diagonal extends straight from a first spanwise end of the trailing edge to a second spanwise end of the trailing edge. When seen from the downstream viewpoint, the trailing edge crosses the imaginary trailing edge diagonal exactly once at one diagonal crossing point.
