Rotor blade assemblies for wind turbines are provided. In one embodiment, a rotor blade assembly includes a rotor blade, and a plurality of vortex generators configured on at least one of a suction side or a pressure side and disposed within an inboard area of the rotor blade. The plurality of vortex generators include a row of vortex generators extending in a generally span-wise direction, the row comprising a first portion of vortex generators and a second portion of vortex generators, the second portion of vortex generators spaced apart from the first portion of vortex generators in the span-wise direction. Each first portion vortex generator is disposed at a first chord-wise location, and each second portion vortex generator is disposed at a second chord-wise location different from the first chord-wise location.
