Introduction
    An aerodynamic device called a vortilon is used on airplane wings to enhance their performance and control capabilities (van Uitert, 2021). It is a tiny airfoil that produces vortices and is normally mounted on the leading edge of an aircraft wing, close to the wing root. The purpose of vortilons is to improve the lift and control of the aircraft during low-speed flight, such as during takeoff and landing.
Key Functions and Benefits of Vortilons
· Stall Prevention: Vortilons enhance the aircraft's controllability during crucial flying phases by delaying the stall's onset, lowering the likelihood of a stall-related mishap.
· Enhancement of Lift: Vortilons produce vortices that excite the airflow across the top surface of the wing. By delaying the stall of the wing due to the increased airflow, the aircraft is able to retain lift at slower speeds.
· Improved Low-Speed Handling: Vortilons help make takeoff and landing smoother and more predictable, improving the pilot's ability to handle the aircraft under difficult situations (Manerikar et al., 2021).
· Increased Safety: Vortilons help make flight operations safer, particularly in bad weather or when the aircraft is fully laden.
· Reduced Landing Distance:...
