Various Coordinate Frames
Riemann-Derived Expressions
|
The purple (ellipsoidal) configuration is spinning with frequency, <math>~\Omega_0</math> about the <math>~z_0</math>-axis of the "inertial frame," as illustrated; that is,
<math>~\boldsymbol\Omega</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\boldsymbol{\hat{k}_0}\Omega_0 \, .</math> |
Also as illustrated, the "body frame," which is attached to and aligned with the principal axes of the purple ellipsoid, is tilted at an angle, <math>~\delta</math>, with respect to the inertial frame. Hence, as viewed from the body frame, we have,
<math>~\boldsymbol\Omega</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\biggl[ \boldsymbol{\hat\jmath }\sin\delta + \boldsymbol{\hat{k} }\cos\delta \biggr]\Omega_0 \, .</math> |
Now, adhering to the notation used by [EFE] — see, for example, the first paragraph of §51 (p. 156) — we should write,
<math>~\boldsymbol\Omega</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\boldsymbol{\hat\jmath }\Omega_2 + \boldsymbol{\hat{k} }\Omega_3 ~~~~~\Rightarrow ~~~ \Omega_2 = \Omega_0\sin\delta </math> and, <math>~\Omega_3 = \Omega_0\cos\delta \, .</math> |
This means that,
<math>~\Omega_0</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \biggl[\Omega_2^2 + \Omega_3^2 \biggr]^{1 / 2} </math> and, <math>~\delta = \tan^{-1}\biggl[ \frac{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \biggr] \, .</math> |
As we have summarized in an accompanying discussion of Riemann Type 1 ellipsoids, [EFE] provides an expression for the velocity vector of each fluid element, given its instantaneous body-coordinate position (x, y, z) = (x1, x2, x3) — see his Eq. (154), Chapter 7, §51 (p. 156). As viewed from the rotating frame of reference, the three component expressions are,
<math>~\dot{x} = u_1 = \boldsymbol{\hat\imath} \cdot \boldsymbol{u}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\biggl(\frac{a}{b}\biggr)^2 \gamma \Omega_3 y - \biggl(\frac{a}{c}\biggr)^2 \beta \Omega_2 z</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~- \biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \zeta_3 y + \biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \zeta_2 z \, ,</math> |
<math>~\dot{y} = u_2 = \boldsymbol{\hat\jmath} \cdot \boldsymbol{u}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~- \gamma \Omega_3 x</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~+\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \zeta_3 x \, ,</math> |
<math>~\dot{z} = u_3 = \boldsymbol{\hat{k}} \cdot \boldsymbol{u}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~+ \beta \Omega_2 x</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~- \biggl[ \frac{c^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \zeta_2 x \, ,</math> |
where,
<math>~\beta</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ - \biggl[ \frac{c^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \frac{\zeta_2}{\Omega_2} </math> |
and, |
<math>~\gamma</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ - \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{\zeta_3}{\Omega_3} \, . </math> |
Rotating-Frame Vorticity

||||||||||
For our chosen Example Type I Ellipsoid, we have, <math>~\zeta_2 = -2.2794</math> and <math>~\Omega_3 = -1.9637</math>, in which case, <math>~\zeta_\mathrm{rot} = (\zeta_2^2 + \zeta_3^2)^{1 / 2} = 2.2794</math> and <math>~\xi \equiv \tan^{-1}[\zeta_2/\zeta_3] = 4.0013 ~\mathrm{rad} = 229.26^\circ</math>. |
Tipped Orbit Planes
Summary
In a separate discussion, we have shown that, as viewed from a frame that "tumbles" with the (purple) body of a Type 1 Riemann ellipsoid, each Lagrangian fluid element moves along an elliptical path in a plane that is tipped by an angle <math>~\theta</math> about the x-axis of the body. As viewed from the (primed) coordinates associated with this tipped plane, by definition, z' = constant and dz'/dt = 0, and the planar orbit is defined by the expression for an,
Off-Center Ellipse | ||
<math>~1</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\biggl[\frac{x'}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 + \biggl[\frac{y' - y_c(z')}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \, .</math> |
|
Notice that the offset, <math>~y_c</math>, is a function of the tipped plane's vertical coordinate, <math>~z'</math>. As a function of time, the x'-y' coordinates and associated velocity components of each Lagrangian fluid element are given by the expressions,
<math>~x'</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~x_\mathrm{max}\cos(\dot\varphi t)</math> |
and, |
<math>~y' - y_c</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~y_\mathrm{max}\sin(\dot\varphi t) \, ,</math> |
<math>~\dot{x}'</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~- x_\mathrm{max}~ \dot\varphi \cdot \sin(\dot\varphi t) = (y_c - y') \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr] \dot\varphi </math> |
and, |
<math>~\dot{y}' </math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~y_\mathrm{max}~\dot\varphi \cdot \cos(\dot\varphi t) = x' \biggl[ \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr] \dot\varphi \, .</math> |
As has been summarized in an accompanying discussion, we have determined that (numerical value given for our chosen example Type I ellipsoid),
<math>~\tan\theta</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ - \frac{\zeta_2}{\zeta_3} \biggl[ \frac{a^2 + b^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \frac{c^2}{b^2} = - \frac{\beta \Omega_2}{\gamma \Omega_3} = -0.34479\, , </math> |
where, <math>~\beta</math> and <math>~\gamma</math> are as defined above. Also,
<math>~\biggl[\frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \frac{a^2}{b^2 c^2} (c^2\cos^2\theta + b^2\sin^2\theta) = 1.05238 \, , </math> |
<math>~{\dot\varphi}^2 </math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \zeta_3^2\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr]^2 \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \biggl[1 + \tan^2\theta \biggr] = 1.68818\, , </math> |
<math>~y_c</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~+ \frac{z' b^2 \tan\theta}{c^2 \cos^2\theta + b^2\sin^2\theta} = +z' \tan\theta \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} = \biggl( \frac{z'}{ \cos\theta }\biggr)(-1.40038) \, .</math> |
Note that this last expression has been obtained by making the substitutions, <math>~y_0 \rightarrow y_c</math> and <math>~z_0 \rightarrow -z'/\cos\theta</math>, in the accompanying derivation's expression for <math>~y_0</math>.
Demonstration
In order to transform a vector from the "tipped orbit" frame (primed coordinates) to the "body" frame (unprimed), we use the following mappings of the three unit vectors:
|
Given that, by design in our "tipped orbit" frame, there is no vertical motion — that is, <math>~\dot{z}' = 0</math> — mapping the (primed coordinate) velocity to the body (unprimed) coordinate is particularly straightforward. Specifically,
<math>~\boldsymbol{u'}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \boldsymbol{\hat\imath'} \dot{x}' + \boldsymbol{\hat\jmath'} \dot{y}' </math> |
|
<math>~~~\rightarrow~~</math> |
<math>~ \boldsymbol{\hat\imath} \dot{x}' + [\boldsymbol{\hat\jmath}\cos\theta + \boldsymbol{\hat{k}}\sin\theta] \dot{y}' </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \boldsymbol{\hat\imath} \biggl\{ (y_c - y') \biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \dot\varphi \biggr\} + [\boldsymbol{\hat\jmath}\cos\theta + \boldsymbol{\hat{k}}\sin\theta] \biggl\{ x' \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \dot\varphi \biggr\} \, . </math> |
Recognizing, as before, that the relevant coordinate mapping is,
|
we have,
<math>~\boldsymbol{u'}</math> |
<math>~~~\rightarrow~~~</math> |
<math>~ \boldsymbol{\hat\imath} \dot\varphi \biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr)\biggl\{y_c - y\cos\theta - z\sin\theta\biggr\} + \boldsymbol{\hat\jmath} \dot\varphi \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \biggr\{ x\cos\theta \biggr\} + \boldsymbol{\hat{k}} \dot\varphi \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \biggr\{ x\sin\theta \biggr\} \, , </math> |
where,
<math>~y_c</math> |
<math>~~~\rightarrow~~~</math> |
<math>~ +[z\cos\theta - y\sin\theta] \tan\theta \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} \, .</math> |
Written in terms of the "body" frame coordinates, therefore, the 2nd and 3rd components of this velocity vector are, respectively:
<math>~\boldsymbol{\hat\jmath}\cdot \boldsymbol{u'}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \dot\varphi \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \cos\theta </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \biggl\{ \zeta_3^2\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr]^2 \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \biggl[1 + \tan^2\theta \biggr] \biggr\}^{1 / 2} \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \cos\theta </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \biggl\{ \zeta_3 \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggr\} \, , </math> |
<math>~\boldsymbol{\hat{k}}\cdot \boldsymbol{u'}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \dot\varphi \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \sin\theta </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \biggl\{ \zeta_3^2\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr]^2 \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \biggl[1 + \tan^2\theta \biggr] \biggr\}^{1 / 2} \biggl( \frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \sin\theta </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \biggl\{ \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggr\} \tan\theta </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ x \biggl\{ \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggr\} \biggl\{ - \frac{\zeta_2}{\zeta_3} \biggl[ \frac{a^2 + b^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \frac{c^2}{b^2} \biggr\} </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ -x \biggl\{ \zeta_2\biggl[ \frac{c^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \biggr\} \, . </math> |
These expressions perfectly match the body-coordinate expressions derived by Riemann (see above) for, respectively, <math>~\dot{y}</math> and <math>~\dot{z}</math>. The 1st component is,
<math>~\boldsymbol{\hat\imath}\cdot \boldsymbol{u'}</math> |
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \dot\varphi \biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr)\biggl\{y_c - y\cos\theta - z\sin\theta\biggr\}</math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \biggl\{ \zeta_3^2\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr]^2 \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \biggl[1 + \tan^2\theta \biggr] \biggr\}^{1 / 2} \biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr) \biggl\{y_c - y\cos\theta - z\sin\theta\biggr\} </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr)^2 \biggl\{\frac{y_c}{\cos\theta} - y - z\tan\theta\biggr\} </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr)^2 \biggl\{ \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{y_c}{\cos\theta} -~y\cdot \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] +~ z\cdot \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{\zeta_2}{\zeta_3} \biggl[ \frac{a^2 + b^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \frac{c^2}{b^2} \biggr\} </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~\biggl( \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr)^2 \biggl\{ \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{y_c}{\cos\theta} -~y\cdot \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{b^2}{a^2} +~ z\cdot \zeta_2\biggl[ \frac{a^2}{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \frac{c^2}{a^2} \biggr\} \, . </math> |
So, implementing the mapping of <math>~y_c</math>, the first term inside the curly braces becomes,
<math>~\zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{y_c}{\cos\theta}</math> |
<math>~~~\rightarrow~~~</math> |
<math>~ \frac{\zeta_3}{\cos\theta}\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggl\{ +[z\cos\theta - y\sin\theta] \tan\theta \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggr\} </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ \zeta_3 \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggl\{ -y\tan^2\theta \biggr\} + \zeta_3 \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr]\tan\theta \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggl\{ z \biggr\} </math> |
|
<math>~=</math> |
<math>~ -~y \cdot \zeta_3 \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggl\{ \tan^2\theta \biggr\} - z \cdot \zeta_2 \biggl[ \frac{c^2 }{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \biggl[\frac{y_\mathrm{max}}{x_\mathrm{max}} \biggr]^2 \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggl\{ \tan^2\theta \biggr\} </math> |
<math>~\Rightarrow ~~~ \biggl(\frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}} \biggr)^2 \zeta_3\biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{y_c}{\cos\theta}</math> |
<math>~~~\rightarrow~~~</math> |
<math>~ -~y \cdot \zeta_3 \biggl[ \frac{b^2}{a^2 + b^2} \biggr] \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggl\{ \tan^2\theta \biggr\} - z \cdot \zeta_2 \biggl[ \frac{c^2 }{a^2 + c^2} \biggr] \frac{a^2}{c^2} \biggl\{ \tan^2\theta \biggr\} </math> |
<math> \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr]^2~=~\frac{a^2}{b^2c^2} (c^2\cos^2\theta + b^2\sin^2\theta) </math>
<math> \biggl[ \frac{x_\mathrm{max}}{y_\mathrm{max}}\biggr]^2 \biggl[ 1 + \tan^2\theta \biggr]~=~\frac{a^2}{b^2c^2} (c^2 + b^2\tan^2\theta) </math>
Therefore,
