1. If it's cell centered data, apply the CellDataToPointData filter. If it's point data, skip this step 2. Apply the ComputeDerivatives filter. Choose your velocity vector as the Vectors argument, set the Output Vector Type to Vorticity. I usually also set Output Tensor Type to nothing unless you need it. 3. Hit apply.
