Assertion (A): Vortex generators are often fitted as a retrofit to cure buffet or restore control authority.

Reason (R): They mix high-momentum air into the boundary layer, delaying separation.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • B.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • C.A is true but R is false
  • D.A is false but R is true

Answer: A

Both statements are true and the second explains the first. Because they are small, cheap and external, they can be added after flight testing reveals a separation problem, which is exactly how many transport aircraft acquired them. The cost is a small permanent drag increment.
