| Abstract: | A characteristic feature of atmospheric vortices of a convective nature is the powerful radial motions of the medium at their base. In order to take these motions into account in analytical and numerical modeling, it is necessary to use point or distributed vortex sinks (vortex sources), which we will call helical vortices (from the shape of the streamlines of the flows produced) 1]. It seems likely that the interaction of point helical vortices was first considered in the until recently little-known study 2] which was included in the collection 3] and partially overlaps with the more recent studies 4, 5].Moscow.
