правозакрученный поток

Russian to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space Website Content
Остальные линии тока X — Y проходят через веер волн сжатия вниз по потоку, причем линии тока Z и Y примерно сохраняют первоначальное направление, а линии тока K - N образуют правозакрученный поток — пристенный вихрь.

Линии тока = Streamlines

TIA!

clockwise spinning flow/flow with clockwise vorticity

Using the right-hand rule -thumb in the direction of the flow - the curled fingers of the right hand give the direction of the flow/vortex.

ccccccccccccccccccc
Vorticity is a clockwise or counterclockwise spin in the troposphere. 500-mb vorticity is also termed vertical vorticity (the spin is in relation to a vertical axis).

Peer comment(s):

agree Denis Fesik : I wouldn't use "right swirling" here either, but I'd say vorticity is positive (rather than "clockwise") in flows that rotate clockwise

right-twisting flow

Вариант перевода в целом:

The remaining X - Y current lines pass through the compression wave fan downstream, with the Z and Y current lines roughly retaining their original direction and the K - N current lines forming a right-twisting flow - a wall vortex.
