Abstract
Changes of macroscopic circulation induced by high amplitude, rotation ally polarized waves in a third sound resonator are measured. The resu lts are compared to a model including a simple frictional vortex drag with the substrate. A significantly larger than expected concentration of vorticity is deposited in the vicinity of a central hole piercing the resonator which other modifications to the model cannot address.
