Abstract
We describe procedure and main results of numerical simulations on the resp onse of the vortex sheet in He-3-A to changes in the rotation velocity. The response is studied for different configurations of the sheet consisting o f single or multiple pieces. The behavior of the vortex sheet is found to c hange significantly with an increasing number of connections of the sheet t o the wall of the container, in agreement with recent experimental observat ions.
