Can vortex generators be used without a wing to reduce drag? On the rear roof of the car or even the decklid?

@faithstormer1976

@@ChargedTTq Vortex Generators are meant to keep the air that passes through your car attached to the boundary layer. Without them, at certain high speeds your air starts to disperse at the top of the car right before the roof slopes down. In a way they can reduce drag, but not a whole lot cause you still need other parts to help reduce drag.

When you brought up the example of what they thought when designing the EVO´s aerodynamics I understood exactly how it would play out. It basically helps the wing to do it´s job more properly to push down the rear end for down force.

This video was quite helpful to me! It made it a lot easier for me to understand what vortex generators do and how they improve the airflow. Looking at this from an aviation perspective (specifically improving the stall characteristics of wings) this was an incredibly helpful video explaining how that works. I was previously confused as to how disturbing the airflow over the wing could work to improve the stall characteristics, but now it all makes sense! Thank you very much for your highly informative video!

Did he just predicted that Civic type R will have the vortex generator

Excellent, Kyle! I appreciate your diligence and hard work bringing aerospace to the masses

Love what you do, man. As a supportive comment, I'd like to mention there is a science or two on being able to hold the attention of the viewer/listener. I'm talking about audio quality. The ghastly echo in your voice recording which you created by relying on the built in mic of your camera...several feet away, can be easily solved by clipping a small mic to your lapel. You could also use a boom mic just out of your shot, but since you move around a lot, you"d need an operator. In other words, to hold the attention of even seriously interested, technically minded viewers, you need a mic close to your mouth. This will help you present your world class information in a world class manner. Once again, love the great contribution to racing education that you make.

Man I'm in love with your videos, keep it up

There are many different kinds of vortex generators, such as simple plow, shielded plow, triangular plow, scoop, twist interchanger, ramp, tapered fin, dome, shielded sink, wedge, vane, wing, fences, leading edge fairing, dorsal fin, etc.

Just discovered your videos, love them bro!

When I was a Truck Driver we put Vortex Generator on the aft edge of the cabs and Trailers and the difference that made to stabilizing the vehicles was very impressive, and the unexpected fuel saving was a surprise but very welcomed.

I'm Currently studying to become a aviation maintenance engineer... i had a hard time understanding exactly how vortex generators suck high energy air into the boundary layer... You said the exact same thing my instructor said in his explanation, but just seeing you use a diagram while you explained gave me an epiphany... thank you

Why would somebody say you don’t know what your talking about? I have an aeronautical science degree and I enjoyed the refresher. Thank you! Great video!

Cheers mate, Very helpful and good and the Explanation along with applying the Scientific Proof of what Vortex Generaters do. 💯

I will add to what Kyle is saying here - I drive a first generation Dodge Stealth with the so called "banana" spoiler which is at the base of the rear window. I tuft tested it and wound up with swirling blah airflow over the top of it. The tufts went in circles. After I added the vortex generators, the airflow is now nice and straight, top and bottom.

Took me a while to find you. Like your videos. iRacer here PCA coach, so working with aero is new to me. Running a Merc AMG GT3 car. Thank you- it has got me thinking. --S

Most enlightening, great stuff ... I like seeing cars with VGs and no spoiler. Hehehe ...

Would it be too much to ask for you to make a video going over the different types of vortex generators like you did on the diffusers?

I really wish more people who think they are gear heads were informed like you are. I have watched videos of people going down the road with there coors beer in there buddys truck calling out every car with any aerodynamic mod on screaming that they are a racer. I would have not know what a Swan Neck Wing was if it was not for your video. You make perfect sense when you explain. keep up the good work

This is a trip back for someone who just started watching your stuff recently. (I like the beard, fyi)

Great videos - Would love something that goes a bit more in depth on what types of vortex generators the average person might DIY in their garage for a budget limited race car.

Thank you, it was very illustrative.

Very interesting ! Thanks for the explanations

Left handed drawing is difficult. I'm left handed so don't sweat it. Clear concise explanation. I'm currently re-engineering my 2017 truck for better gas mileage through engine calibration and I now realize that aero needs to be part of the solution. Underbelly as well as the roof to the rear wing need smoothing in order to cut down the CD of the vehicle to make more progress. 20% savings isn't enough for me.

You got a subscriber and a like from me. Thank you and please keep it up, this has been informative and it made complete sense. The reason I watched the video is because I am trying to improve my car for autocross and I wanted to learn about vortex generators. This was exactly what I needed. The only question I have left to answer is do they make more of an impact at higher speeds, my inclination is to say yes as it is probably easier to measure the impact they make at higher speeds vs lower speeds, but the effect they have is present regardless of speed, therefore I think it is wise to install these if your goal is to improve track times. Also I like the bit where you explain the "flaw" behind the evo designed vortex generators, as they are not the most efficient vortex generators, so I should do some research and find vortex generators that actually work before making a purchase. If you have a recommendation on a manufacturer of aftermarket vortex generators that would be superb (or you could always make them yourself, as I am sure you could make a competing product. Also wouldn't you think it help improve track times if vortex generators were installed at every angle?).

Excellent Lecture. A+. Thank You.

Lool that flex in the intro 💪🏾 tells me i came to the right channel 👍🏽

Thanks for the information Kyle. It led to me do a lot more research to understand how they work. I realized that a vortex generator is useless on my car and possibly counterproductive.

Nice video, good explanation for low velocity air flow. High velocity appears to react very differently, flow separation always occurs.

Very helpful video. I am interested in the aeronautical application for VGs and your video explained it nicely. Be it a car or airplane wing the same principal applies, just you car guys want the lift downwards and we airplane guys want it the other way. Thanks for a neat video.

Thanks for the explanation.

Thank you Kyle 🏁🙏🏼👌🏼

Kyle really out here proving his credentials serving up blade runner looks we don't deserve him

Thx alot for explain and presentations

Kyle, very well explained. Could you perhaps make a video to explain this concept on another application, be the edge of a bicycle tire. Mavic came out with the CXR and CX01 blade that smoothens the surface area where the tire mounts the rim, yet insisted on using their tire which has tiny ridges to create a gradient vortex at the leading frontal edge of the tire. In trying to understand their design and science I came accros this video. I would be curious to better understand where tp make this vortex on the edgw to have the greatest effect

I see vortex generators on airplanes that need increased short take-off performance also. Thanks for the informative vid. Now i have a better understanding of how those devices work.
