would it be possible to get more air in the same area by putting vortex generaters arround the inlet openings there-by smothing out turbulent air ? > Mike Turner ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Mike, I think the purpose of vortex generators is to "create" turblent air, hence the name. If anything, you might want some baffles that smooth out and direct the airflow. Vortex generators on the wing creates a turbulent flow that helps to keep the airflow "stuck" to the wing at higher angles of attach. Larry Flesner
