{{continuum mechanics|cTopic=Fluid mechanics}}
In [[fluid dynamics]], the '''vorticity''' is a [[pseudovector]] [[vector field|field]] that describes the ''local'' [[rotation|spinning]] motion of a [[fluid]] near some point, as would be seen by an observer located at that point and traveling along with the fluid.
 
Conceptually, the vorticity could be determined by marking the particles of the [[fluid]] in a small neighborhood of the point in question, and watching their ''relative'' displacements as they move along the flow. The vorticity vector would be twice the mean [[angular velocity]] vector of those particles relative to their [[center of mass]], oriented according to the [[right-hand rule]].  This quantity must not be confused with the angular velocity of the particles relative to some other point.  
 
More precisely, the vorticity of a [[fluid dynamics|flow]] is a [[pseudovector]] [[vector field|field]] {{vec|''ω''}}, equal to the [[curl (mathematics)|curl]] (rotational) of its [[velocity field]] {{vec|''v''}}. It can be expressed by the [[vector analysis]] formula:
 
:<math>\vec{\omega} = \vec{\nabla} \times \vec{v}\,,</math>
 
where {{vec|&nabla;}} is the [[del operator]]. The vorticity of a [[two-dimensional flow]] is always perpendicular to the plane of the flow, and therefore can be considered a [[scalar field]].
 
The vorticity is related to the flow's [[circulation (fluid dynamics)|circulation]] (line integral of the velocity) along a closed path by the Stokes equation.<ref name=Clancy7.11>Clancy, L.J., ''Aerodynamics'', Section 7.11</ref>  Namely, for any [[infinitesimal]] [[Differential (infinitesimal)|surface element]] ''C'' with [[normal (geometry)|normal direction]] {{vec|''n''}} and area ''dA'', the circulation ''d''Γ along the [[perimeter]] of ''C'' is the [[dot product]] {{vec|''ω''}} ∙ (''dA'' {{vec|''n''}}) where {{vec|''ω''}} is the vorticity at the center of ''C''.<ref name=Clancy7.11/>
 
Many phenomena, such as the blowing out of a candle by a puff of air, are more readily explained in terms of vorticity rather than the basic concepts of [[pressure]] and velocity. This applies, in particular, to the formation and motion of [[vortex ring]]s.
 
==Examples==
In a mass of fluid that is rotating like a rigid body, the vorticity is twice the [[angular velocity]] vector of that rotation. This is the case, for example, of water in a tank that has been spinning for a while around its vertical axis, at a constant rate.  
 
The vorticity may be nonzero even when all particles are flowing along straight and parallel [[pathline|pathlines]], if there is [[shear (fluid)|shear]] (that is, if the flow speed varies across [[Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines|streamlines]]). For example, in the [[laminar flow]] within a pipe with constant [[cross section (geometry)|cross section]], all particles travel parallel to the axis of the pipe; but faster near that axis, and practically stationary next to the walls. The vorticity will be zero on the axis, and maximum near the walls, where the shear is largest.
 
Conversely, a flow may have zero vorticity even though its particles travel along curved trajectories. An example is the ideal [[vortex|irrotational vortex]], where most particles rotate about some straight axis, with speed inversely proportional to their distances to that axis.  A small parcel of fluid that does not straddle the axis will be rotated in one sense but sheared in the opposite sense, in such a way that their mean angular velocity ''about their center of mass'' is zero.

Another way to visualize vorticity is to imagine that, instantaneously, a tiny part of the fluid becomes solid and the rest of the flow disappears. If that tiny new solid particle is rotating, rather than just moving with the flow, then there is vorticity in the flow.
 
[[Image:Vorticity visualized diagram.png|Alternate visualization of vorticity.]]
 
==Mathematical definition==
Mathematically, the vorticity of a three-dimensional flow is a pseudovector field, usually denoted by {{vec|''ω''}}, defined as the [[curl (mathematics)|curl]] or rotational of the velocity field {{vec|''v''}} describing the fluid motion. In [[Cartesian coordinates]]:
 
:<math>
  \begin{array}{rcl}
    \vec{\omega}
      &=& \nabla \times \vec{v} \;=\;
        \left(\frac{\partial}{\partial x},\frac{\partial}{\partial y},\frac{\partial}{\partial z}\right)\times(v_x,v_y,v_z)\\
      &=&
        \left(
          \frac{\partial v_z}{\partial y} - \frac{\partial v_y}{\partial z},\;
          \frac{\partial v_x}{\partial z} - \frac{\partial v_z}{\partial x},\;
          \frac{\partial v_y}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial v_x}{\partial y}
        \right)
  \end{array}
</math>
In words, the vorticity tells how the velocity vector changes when one moves by an infinitesimal distance in a direction perpendicular to it.
 
In a two-dimensional flow where the velocity is independent of the ''z'' coordinate and has no ''z'' component, the vorticity vector is always parallel to the ''z'' axis, and therefore can be viewed as a scalar field:
:<math>
  \vec{\omega}
    \;=\; \nabla \times \vec{v} \;=\;
    \left(\frac{\partial}{\partial x},\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\right)\times(v_x,v_y)
    \;=\; \frac{\partial v_y}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial v_x}{\partial y}
</math>
 
== Evolution ==
The evolution of the vorticity field in time is described by the [[vorticity equation]], which can be derived from the [[Navier-Stokes equations]].
 
In many real flows where the viscosity can be neglected (more precisely, in flows with high [[Reynolds number]]), the vorticity field can be modeled well by a collection of discrete vortices, the vorticity being negligible everywhere except in small regions of space surrounding the axes of the vortices.  This is clearly true in the case of 2-D [[potential flow]] (i.e. 2-D zero viscosity flow), in which case the flowfield can be modeled as a [[complex number|complex-valued]] field on the [[complex plane]].
 
Vorticity is a useful tool to understand how the ideal potential flow solutions can be perturbed to model real flows.  In general, the presence of viscosity causes a [[diffusion]] of vorticity away from the vortex cores into the general flow field.  This flow is accounted for by the diffusion term in the vorticity transport equation.  Thus, in cases of very viscous flows (e.g. [[Couette Flow]]), the vorticity will be diffused throughout the flow field and it is probably simpler to look at the velocity field than at the vorticity.
 
==Vortex lines and vortex tubes==
A '''vortex line''' or '''vorticity line''' is a line which is everywhere tangent to the local vorticity vector.  A '''vortex tube''' is the surface in the fluid formed by all vortex-lines passing through a given (reducible) closed curve in the fluid. The 'strength' of a vortex-tube (also called '''vortex flux''') <ref>[http://www.astro.uu.nl/~achterb/aigd/aigd6.ppt Introduction to Astrophysical Gas Dynamics]</ref> is the integral of the vorticity across a cross-section of the tube, and is the same at everywhere along the tube (because vorticity has zero divergence). It is a consequence of [[Helmholtz's theorems]] (or equivalently, of [[Kelvin's circulation theorem]]) that in an inviscid fluid the 'strength' of the vortex tube is also constant with time. Viscous effects introduce frictional losses and time dependence.
 
In a three dimensional flow, vorticity (as measured by the volume integral of its squared magnitude) can be intensified when a vortex-line is extended — a phenomenon known as [[vortex stretching]].<ref>Batchelor, section 5.2</ref> This phenomenon occurs in the formation of a bath-tub vortex in out-flowing water, and the build-up of a tornado by rising air-currents.
 
[[Hydrodynamical helicity|Helicity]] is vorticity in motion along a third axis in a corkscrew fashion.
 
==Specific sciences==
 
===Aeronautics===
In [[aerodynamics]], the [[lift (force)|lift]] distribution over a finite wing may be approximated by assuming that each segment of the wing has a semi-infinite trailing vortex behind it. It is then possible to solve for the strength of the vortices using the criterion that there be no flow induced through the surface of the wing. This procedure is called the vortex panel method of [[computational fluid dynamics]]. The strengths of the vortices are then summed to find the total approximate [[circulation (fluid dynamics)|circulation]] about the wing. According to the [[Kutta–Joukowski theorem]], lift is the product of circulation, airspeed, and air density.
 
===Atmospheric sciences===
The '''relative vorticity''' is the vorticity of the air velocity field relative to the [[Earth]].  This is often modeled as a two-dimensional flow parallel to the ground, so that the relative vorticity vector is generally perpendicular to the ground, and can then be viewed as a scalar quantity, positive when the vector points upward, negative when it points downwards.  Therefore, vorticity is positive then the wind turns counter-clockwise (looking down onto the Earth's surface). In the Northern Hemisphere, positive vorticity is called [[cyclone|cyclonic rotation]], and negative vorticity is [[anticyclone|anticyclonic rotation]]; the nomenclature is reversed in the Southern Hemisphere.
 
The '''absolute vorticity''' is computed from the air velocity relative to an inertial frame, and therefore includes a term due to the Earth's rotation, the [[Coriolis parameter]].
 
The [[potential vorticity]] is absolute vorticity divided by the vertical spacing between levels of constant [[entropy]] (or [[potential temperature]]). The absolute vorticity of an air mass will change if the air mass is stretched (or compressed) in the ''z'' direction, but the  potential vorticity is [[conservation law|conserved]] in an [[adiabatic]] flow, which predominates in the atmosphere. The potential vorticity is therefore useful as an approximate [[Flow tracer|tracer]] of air masses over the timescale of a few days, particularly when viewed on levels of constant entropy.
 
The [[barotropic vorticity equation]] is the simplest way for forecasting the movement of [[Rossby wave]]s (that is, the [[trough (meteorology)|troughs]] and [[ridge]]s of  500&nbsp;[[pascal (unit)|hPa]] [[geopotential height]]) over a limited amount of time (a few days). In the 1950s, the first successful programs for [[numerical weather forecasting]] utilized that equation.
 
In modern ''numerical weather forecasting models'' and [[general circulation model]]s (GCM's), vorticity may be one of the predicted variables, in which case the corresponding time-dependent equation is a [[prognostic equation]].
 
Helicity of the air motion is important in forecasting [[supercell]]s and the potential for [[tornado|tornadic]] activity.

Over time, the data on your difficult drive gets scattered. Defragmenting the hard drive puts a information back into sequential order, creating it easier for Windows to access it. As a result, the performance of the computer might better. An great registry cleaner may allow work this task. But should you would like to defrag the PC with Windows software. Here a link to show we how.

Document files allow the consumer to input information, images, tables plus different elements to improve the presentation. The only problem with this formatting compared to additional file types including .pdf for example is its ability to be commonly editable. This signifies which anybody viewing the file will change it by accident. Additionally, this file formatting may be opened by other programs yet it refuses to guarantee which what you see inside the Microsoft Word application can nevertheless become the same whenever you view it utilizing another program. However, it's nonetheless preferred by most computer users for its ease of employ and features.

The 'registry' is a central database which stores information, settings plus choices for a computer. It's actually the many normal reason why XP runs slow and if you fix this issue, you might make your computer run a lot quicker. The issue is that the 'registry' stores a lot of settings plus details regarding your PC... and because Windows must utilize so many of these settings, any corrupted or damaged ones might directly affect the speed of the program.

The 1328 error is a normal issue caused by the system being unable to properly process various changes for the system or Microsoft Office. If you have this error, it commonly signifies that the computer is either unable to read the actual update file or the computer has issues with the settings it's utilizing to run. To fix this issue, you initially want to change / fix any difficulties that a computer has with its update files, and then repair some of the issues which the program may have.

The final step is to make sure that you clean the registry of the computer. The "registry" is a large database that shops significant files, settings & options, plus info. Windows reads the files it requires inside order for it to run programs from this database. If the registry gets damaged, afflicted, or clogged up, then Windows are not able to correctly access the files it needs for it to load up programs. As this arises, difficulties and errors like the d3d9.dll error happen. To fix this and prevent future setbacks, you need to download and run a registry cleaning tool. The highly recommended software is the "Frontline fix it utilities".

If you think that there are issues with the d3d9.dll file, then you need to substitute it with a unique working file. This may be performed by conducting a series of procedures and we can commence by downloading "d3d9.zip" within the host. Then you have to unzip the "d3d9.dll" file on the hard drive of your computer. Proceed by locating "C:\Windows\System32" and then acquiring the existing "d3d9.dll" on the PC. Once found, rename the file "d3d9.dll to d3d9BACKUP.dll" and then copy-paste this unique file to "C:\Windows\System32". After which, press "Start" followed by "Run" or search "Run" on Windows Vista & 7. As soon because a box shows up, kind "cmd". A black screen will then appear plus you must type "regsvr32d3d9.dll" and then click "Enter". This process will allow you to replace the aged file with the fresh copy.

In other words, when a PC has any corrupt settings inside the registry database, these settings may create a computer run slower and with a lot of errors. And sadly, it's the case which XP is prone to saving numerous settings from the registry in the incorrect way, making them unable to run correctly, slowing it down and causing a great deal of errors. Each time we employ your PC, it has to read 100's of registry settings... plus there are frequently a lot of files open at when that XP gets confuse and saves countless in the incorrect way. Fixing these damaged settings usually boost the speed of the program... and to do which, you need to look to utilize a 'registry cleaner'.

There are many companies that offer the service of troubleshooting the PC each time you call them, all you have to do is signal up with them and for a tiny fee, you have a machine usually working effectively plus serve you greater.
