Weight, speed, wingspan, and shape of the generating aircraft's wing all govern the strength of the vortex. Studies have shown that winglets have a negligible effect on wake turbulence generation, particularly with the slower speeds involved during departures and arrivals. There are several types of winglets, but their primary function is to increase fuel efficiency by improving the lift-to-drag ratio. More aircraft are being manufactured or retrofitted with winglets. (See FIG 7-4-1.) The wake vortex is formed with most of the energy concentrated within a few feet of the vortex core. After the roll up is completed, the wake consists of two counter-rotating cylindrical vortices. This pressure differential triggers the roll up of the airflow at the rear of the wing resulting in swirling air masses trailing downstream of the wing tips. The lowest pressure occurs over the upper wing surface and the highest pressure under the wing. The creation of a pressure differential over the wing surface generates lift. Pilots should always be aware of the possibility of a wake turbulence encounter when flying through the wake of another aircraft, and adjust the flight path accordingly. Wake turbulence can impose rolling moments exceeding the roll-control authority of encountering aircraft, causing possible injury to occupants and damage to aircraft. Wake turbulence from the generating aircraft can affect encountering aircraft due to the strength, duration, and direction of the vortices. Wake turbulence is a function of an aircraft producing lift, resulting in the formation of two counter-rotating vortices trailing behind the aircraft.
