Difference between Helicopter rotor and Wingtip vortices

Helicopter rotor vs. Wingtip vortices

A helicopter main rotor or rotor system is the combination of several rotary wings (rotor blades) and a control system that generates the aerodynamic lift force that supports the weight of the helicopter, and the thrust that counteracts aerodynamic drag in forward flight. Wingtip vortices are circular patterns of rotating air left behind a wing as it generates lift.

Similarities between Helicopter rotor and Wingtip vortices

Helicopter rotor and Wingtip vortices have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aspect ratio (aeronautics), Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey, Disk loading, Glider (sailplane), Lift (force), NASA, Tiltrotor.

Aspect ratio (aeronautics)

In aeronautics, the aspect ratio of a wing is the ratio of its span to its mean chord.

Tiltrotor

A tiltrotor is an aircraft which generates lift and propulsion by way of one or more powered rotors (sometimes called proprotors) mounted on rotating engine pods or nacelles usually at the ends of a fixed wing or an engine mounted in the fuselage with drive shafts transferring power to rotor assemblies mounted on the wingtips.
