1. plural of vorticity; measures of the local spinning motion of a fluid at a point
Usage: physics; fluid dynamics

Examples

• The meteorologist calculated the vorticities at different altitudes to predict storm formation.
• High vorticities in the atmosphere often indicate areas of turbulence.
• The fluid dynamics simulation showed varying vorticities across the flow field.
• Scientists measured the vorticities in the ocean current to understand circulation patterns.
• The tornado’s extreme vorticities made it particularly dangerous.
• Researchers compared the vorticities of different atmospheric layers.
