A helix is a 'loose spiral' rather than a tightly wound spiral. Often used in vacuum tubes to amplify an electron beam.

What is the difference between a spiral and a helix?

"Spiral" is a general term describing a circular pathway in space. Without getting into mathematical formulas to describe the different types of spirals suffice it to say that, at the high school level, a spiral, as in the case of a whirlpool, can be seen to have a decreasing diameter along the medial axis of the spiral. In contrast, the diameter of a helix, such as a DNA molecule, is uniformly constant. Wrap a wire around a cone and then remove the cone; the shape of the wire is representative of a spiral. Wrap a wire around a cylinder and then remove the cylinder; the shape of the wire is representative of a helix. Pakrutoy
