Vortex reduction apparatus for use with airfoils are disclosed. An example vortex reduction apparatus includes a housing to couple to a tip of an airfoil. The housing defines a volute fluid flow passageway between an inlet and an outlet. The volute fluid flow passageway is structured to induce a rotational fluid flow in a first rotational direction opposite a second rotational direction of a shed vortex induced at the tip of the airfoil during flight.
