Expansion of a fluid, and hence of its embedded vortex lines or tubes, in the direction of the axis about which spin is concentrated. 1, record 1, English, - vortex%20stretching
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
In the absence of a density change this leads to a contraction of the fluid in the plane normal to the axis of spin, and the vorticity of the fluid increases to conserve its angular momentum. 1, record 1, English, - vortex%20stretching
