The aim of this communication is to investigate what constraints to the cosmological parameter Ω = 2qO can be obtained if one assumes that primaeval whirl motions or adiabatic density perturbations with an appropriate initial spectrum were responsible for the formation of large scale structure in the Universe. These constraints are readily obtained from the two conditions: (i) an upper limit to small scale temperature fluctuations of the microwave background radiation, and (ii) the requirement that the primaeval perturbations should be large enough in order to produce observed structures.
