Vortex Generators do not work but the subject persists and it is probably due to various companies selling these easily knocked off plastic wedges for ridiculous prices.
Go ahaed and buy these ludicrous items whereas you can be putting the hard earned cash to work by filling your tank.Have you seen any high mileage vehicles using vortex generators? i hardly think so and if they did work i hardly think your vehicle or anyones elses can do mach 1 0r two...................good luck...........your loss is airtabs gain.
because it will take me a million years to explain this all,,,,heres the data !!!! plus its a good idea to research everything that goes with this subject matter..... Fluid Dynamics, Reynolds numbers, Bernoullis Principle, Laminar Flow and so on......
