Abstract:Although pervious investigations have shown that the nature of aircraft wake vortices depends on the aircraft type and flap configuration, the causes for these differences have not been clearly identified. In this Note we show that observed differences in vortex core structure are related to engine placement, engine thrust and wing flap deflection angle.
