Abstract
We propose a method of constructing vector fields with certain vortex properties by means of transformations that change the value of the field vector at every point, the form of the field lines, and their mutual position. We discuss and give concrete examples of the prospects of using the method in applications involving solution of partial differential equations, including nonlinear ones.
