Editing AxisymmetricConfigurations/Equilibria (section)

==Cylindrical Coordinate Base==
We begin by writing each governing equation in Eulerian form and setting all partial time-derivatives to zero:

The steady-state flow field that will be adopted to satisfy both an axisymmetric geometry and the time-independent constraint is, <math>~\vec{v} = \hat{e}_\varphi (\varpi \dot\varphi)</math>.  That is, <math>~\dot\varpi = \dot{z} = 0</math> but, in general, <math>~\dot\varphi</math> is not zero and can be an arbitrary function of <math>~\varpi</math> and <math>~z</math>, that is, <math>~\dot\varphi = \dot\varphi(\varpi,z)</math>.  We will seek solutions to the above set of coupled equations for various chosen spatial distributions of the angular velocity <math>~\dot\varphi(\varpi,z)</math>, or of the specific angular momentum, <math>~j(\varpi,z) = \varpi^2 \dot\varphi(\varpi,z)</math>.

As has been outlined in our discussion of [[SR#Time-Independent_Problems|supplemental relations for time-independent problems]], in the context of this H_Book we will close this set of equations by specifying a structural, barotropic relationship between {{Math/VAR_Pressure01}} and {{Math/VAR_Density01}}.
