Wingtip Vortex Control Via Tip-Mounted Half-Delta Wings of Different Geometric Configurations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The control of the tip vortex, generated by a rectangular NACA 0012 wing, via tip-mounted half-delta wings (HDWs), of different slendernesses Λ, root chords cr, and deflections δ, was investigated experimentally at Re = 2.45 × 105. The results show that regardless of Λ, cr, and δ, the addition of HDWs consistently led to a diffused tip vortex. The degree of diffusion was, however, found to increase with decreasing Λ and cr. HDWs with cr ≤ 50% of the baseline-wing chord c caused a rapid diffusion of vorticity and rendered a weak circulation flowlike tip vortex, suggesting an enhanced wake-vortex decay and alleviation. The cr = 0.5c HDW also produced an improved lift-to-drag ratio. A unique double-vortex pattern also exhibited downstream of the cr ≤ 50%c HDW wings. The interaction and merging of the double vortex were expedited by upward HDW deflection.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
