In cylindrical coordinates, pure-strain extensional (stretching) flow along the z-axis is given by: u_{R}=-(\gamma/2)R and u_{z}=\gamma z, where γ is the strain rate. A vortex aligned with the z-axis has vorticity \omega=\omega_{z}\mathbf{e}_{z}=\omega_{o}(R)\mathbf{e}_{z} at t = 0. What is \omega_{z}(R,t) in this flow when the fluid is inviscid? When γ is positive, does the vorticity at R = 0 strengthen or weaken as t increases? When γ ≠ 0, does the vortex’s circulation change?
