Effect of vortex dynamics and instability characteristics on the induced drag of trailing vortices

In this paper, trailing vortices generated by three wingtip configurations, namely the M6 wing and the M6 wing with a blended or split winglet, are experimentally investigated using the Stereo Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV) technology. Then, linear stability analysis is performed to investigate i...
