How to plot vorticity in MATLAB with respect to y-direction

32 views (last 30 days)
Hello. I'm analyzing data from a PIV lab and I need to find vorticity and plot it with respect to the y coordinates. I have position data for x and y, as well as velocity data in the x and y directions.
I'm supposed to use this equation:
I did some research and found that I should be able to use the MATLAB function curl to find the vorticity...is that right? If so, how would I be able to plot this with respect to the y-direction?
Thanks in advance!
