The figure below shows the evolution of the primary vortex pair downstream of the device. The black dotted lines are approximate centers of the vortex cores.
X-vorticity contours and swirl centers plotted on cross-flow planes.
We are interested in determining an optimum spanwise device spacing for the VGs when used in tandem. Simulations of SBLI will then be computed with the best device spacing and a standard spacing to check for improved mitigation of flow separation.
