Abstract
Gans' criterion is shown to be valid for all inviscid non-diffusive flows where the radial velocity is everywhere zero and the physical variables are functions of the radial distance only. That is, a modified form of the Miles-Howard theorem holds for a large class of helical gas flows.Keywords
