In fluid dynamics, Kerr–Dold vortex is an exact solution of Navier–Stokes equations, which represents steady periodic vortices superposed on the stagnation point flow (or extensional flow). The solution was discovered by Oliver S. Kerr and John W. Dold in 1994. These steady solutions exist as a result of a balance between vortex stretching by the extensional flow and viscous dissipation, which are similar to Burgers vortex. These vortices were observed experimentally in a four-roll mill apparatus by Lagnado and L. Gary Leal.
