Dear Foamers,

I am planing to use vorticity as a post processing utility. When I hit the vorticity command in terminal the error comes up:

Time = 1500
Reading U
Calculating vorticity
--> FOAM Warning :
--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
keyword curl(U) is undefined in dictionary "/home/ali/run/2/system/fvSchemes::gradSchemes"


1. Is there any body explain me what the curl(U) is?
2. Is there any suggestion for the most suitable gradSchemes for curl(U) in fvSchemes?

I really appreciate for any help.
