vortilons

the dc9 has vortlilons or votex generating pylons on the under surface of the wings. does anyone know exactly how they work? and for what purpose? is it anything like vortex generators on the upper surface of other airplanes to energize the boundary layer to delay separation?? the dc 9 32 which im familiar with doesn't have the regular vortex generators...

thanks
