====<font color="darkblue">Step #2 (simplified):</font>==== Use the continuity equation and the curl of the Euler equation to numerically derive the <i>structure</i> but not the overall magnitude of the velocity flow-field throughout the 3D configuration, assuming <math>\vec{\omega}=\hat{k}\omega</math> and the 3D density distribution is known. Here are the relevant equations: <div align="center"> <math> \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\biggl[ \rho v_x \biggr] + \frac{\partial}{\partial y}\biggl[ \rho v_y \biggr] = 0 . </math> </div> <div align="left"> <math> ~~~~~\hat{i}:~~~~~ v_x \frac{\partial v_y}{\partial x} + v_y \frac{\partial v_y}{\partial y} +2\omega v_x = C_{z1}(x,y); </math><br /> <math> ~~~~~\hat{j}:~~~~~ v_x \frac{\partial v_x}{\partial x} + v_y \frac{\partial v_x}{\partial y} -2\omega v_y = C_{z2}(x,y) ; </math><br /> <math> ~~~~~\hat{k}:~~~~~ \frac{\partial}{\partial x} \biggl[ C_{z1}(x,y) \biggr] = \frac{\partial}{\partial y} \biggl[C_{z2}(x,y) \biggr] , </math> </div> Now, for the adopted flow-field of the Riemann ellipsoids, <math>C_{z1}(x,y)</math> is only a function of <math>y</math> and <math>C_{z2}(x,y)</math> is only a function of <math>x</math> — that is, <math>C_{z1}(x,y) \rightarrow C_{z1}(y)</math> and <math>C_{z2}(x,y) \rightarrow C_{z2}(x)</math>. Hence, the third (<math>\hat{k}</math>) condition is automatically satisfied. I don't know whether or not we will find that our more general velocity fields exhibit the same nice character.
