description

In this paper a simple equation for the vortex line density describing some of the most relevant observed effects in counterflow superfluid turbulence in ${}^{4}\mathrm{He}$ in the presence of rotation is proposed. This model is based on a generalization of Vinen's equation which incorporates as additional quantity the angular velocity \ensuremath{\Omega}.
