Divyaprakash is on a distinguished road
I am doing a simulation of a spoon stirring water in a cup. I Wanted to observe the vortices formed. When I plot the vorticity contours, they range from 0 to 5000 /s (the high values are present on the edge of the spoon), even though the rotation rate i am giving to the spoon is only 15 rad/s. Shouldn't the vorticity be comparable to the spoon rotation rate? What am i missing here. The simulation seems to be right. I have got all the residuals to converge. Please help me out here.
