University of New South Wales researchers have created vortex generators that can reportedly reduce the operating solar module temperature by up to 2.5 C. They built two different prototypes, based on ...

New research from Australia has shown that vortex generators and glass texturing have so far proved to be the most effective solutions among the novel methods explored for lowering the temperature of ...

Looking somewhat like a giant reed gently swaying in the wind, the new Vortexbladeless wind-driven generator prototype produces electricity with very few moving parts, on avery small footprint, and in ...

Lufthansa has taken delivery of its first Airbus A320 with vortex generators, which will reduce the noise produced by aircraft during its final approach by up to two decibels. Lufthansa said it is the ...

Through clever application of vortex generators, that is exactly what Piper was able to do. Meridians now being delivered (S/N 149 onwards) offer a full-fuel payload of almost 560 pounds (an increase ...

It doesn’t surprise pilot and inventor Peter Ireland that potential customers are quick to write off his hybrid laminar flow device as smoke and mirrors. He, too, was a skeptic until the impact of his ...
