Governing Equations

Introducing the above expressions into the principal governing equations gives,

Equation of Continuity

<math>\frac{d\rho}{dt} + \frac{\rho}{\varpi} \frac{\partial}{\partial\varpi} \biggl[ \varpi \dot\varpi \biggr] + \frac{1}{\varpi} \frac{\partial}{\partial \varphi} \biggl[ \varpi \dot\varphi \biggr] + \rho \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \biggl[ \dot{z} \biggr] = 0 </math>

Adiabatic Form of the
First Law of Thermodynamics

<math>~\frac{d\epsilon}{dt} + P \frac{d}{dt} \biggl(\frac{1}{\rho}\biggr) = 0</math>

Poisson Equation

<math> \frac{1}{\varpi} \frac{\partial }{\partial\varpi} \biggl[ \varpi \frac{\partial \Phi}{\partial\varpi} \biggr] + \frac{1}{\varpi^2} \frac{\partial^2 \Phi}{\partial \varphi^2} + \frac{\partial^2 \Phi}{\partial z^2} = 4\pi G \rho . </math>

Eulerian Formulation

Each of the above simplified governing equations has been written in terms of Lagrangian time derivatives. An Eulerian formulation of each equation can be obtained by replacing each Lagrangian time derivative by its Eulerian counterpart. Specifically, for any scalar function, <math>f</math>,

<math> \frac{df}{dt} \rightarrow \frac{\partial f}{\partial t} + (\vec{v}\cdot \nabla)f = \frac{\partial f}{\partial t} + \biggl[ \dot\varpi \frac{\partial f}{\partial\varpi} \biggr] + \biggl[ \dot\varphi \frac{\partial f}{\partial\varphi} \biggr] + \biggl[ \dot{z} \frac{\partial f}{\partial z} \biggr] . </math>

Hence,

Equation of Continuity

<math> \frac{\partial\rho}{\partial t} + \biggl[ \dot\varpi \frac{\partial \rho}{\partial\varpi} \biggr] + \frac{\rho}{\varpi} \frac{\partial}{\partial\varpi} \biggl[ \varpi \dot\varpi \biggr] + \biggl[ \dot\varphi \frac{\partial \rho}{\partial\varphi} \biggr] + \frac{1}{\varpi} \frac{\partial}{\partial \varphi} \biggl[ \varpi \dot\varphi \biggr] + \biggl[ \dot{z} \frac{\partial \rho}{\partial z} \biggr] + \rho \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \biggl[ \dot{z} \biggr] = 0 </math>

<math> \Rightarrow \frac{\partial\rho}{\partial t} + \frac{1}{\varpi} \frac{\partial}{\partial\varpi} \biggl[ \rho \varpi \dot\varpi \biggr] + \frac{1}{\varpi} \frac{\partial}{\partial \varphi} \biggl[ \rho \varpi \dot\varphi \biggr] + \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \biggl[ \rho \dot{z} \biggr] = 0 </math>
