Kelvin waves with helical Beltrami flow structure

In this work we show that when an inviscid axisymmetric Rankine flow experiences a soft expansion, rotating Kelvin waves can be excited. Downstream of the region where the expansion occurs (the transition region) the resulting flow can be expressed as the addition of a Rankine and a Beltrami flow. T...
