Hi,
I know that the Euler equations are inviscid. Are they irrotational too? Thanks |

No, Euler equations have rotational solutions also. Since viscosity is absent the vorticity can arise through shocks, baroclinic mechanism or non-conservative body forces (Just take the Euler equations and apply the curl operator to it to derive the vorticity transport equation)
