vorticity equation [vȯr′tis·əd·ē i‚kwā·zhən]

(fluid mechanics)

An equation of fluid mechanics describing horizontal circulation in the motion of particles around a vertical axis: (d/dt) (S+f) = - (S+f) div_hc, where (S+f) is the absolute vorticity (Sis the relative vorticity andfis the Coriolis parameter) and div_hcis the horizontal divergence of the fluid velocity.
