Zusammenfassung:A wind turbine tower comprising a longitudinal axis, an outer surface and a plurality of vortex generators attached to the outer surface, wherein* each vortex generator comprises at least one fin arranged substantially perpendicular to the outer surface and having a fin length and a fin height,* the wind turbine tower in a first height section is provided with a plurality of the vortex generators in a first pattern having a first vortex generator density, and in a second height section is provided with a plurality of the vortex generators in a second pattern having a second vortex generator density, wherein the vortex generator densities are defined in terms of the total number of vortex generators per height unit, and* the first vortex generator density is higher than the second vortex generator density.
