Numerical Investigation of the Wake of a Rectangular Wing

Wakes of lifting bodies contain vortex sheets that roll up into strong streamwise vortices. The long time behavior of such vortices depends on the turbulence in the wake and the stability characteristics of the vortices themselves. In the near wake of a rectangular wing the flow field consists of a...
