chimney winglet combination???

Post

hello

how exactly does the chimney winglet combination work?????.....i thoght that the low pressure developed on the under side of the winglet helped suck the hot air out of the exhausts...is it true???? :?:

And the ferraris are using a different configuration when compared to others. Any views on that..

thanks

Its low pressure sucks everything towards the center of the vortex, thus extracting the hot air.
