The vorticity equation is a fundamental equation in fluid dynamics that describes the evolution of vorticity in a fluid flow. Vorticity, which is a vector field, represents the tendency of fluid elements to rotate and is mathematically defined as the curl of the velocity field. In incompressible and inviscid flow (i.e.
