Euler equations in the orthogonal Cartesian coordinates. In the orthogonal Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z) the Euler equations (1)–(2) are written as:

∂u

∂t + u

∂u

∂x + v

∂u

∂y + w

∂u

∂z = –

∂p

∂x ,

∂v

∂t + u

∂v

∂x + v

∂v

∂y + w

∂v

∂z = –

∂p

∂y ,

∂w

∂t + u

∂w

∂x + v

∂w

∂y + w

∂w

∂z = –

∂p

∂z ,

∂u

∂x + ∂v

∂y + ∂w

∂z = 0,

where u, v, and w are the components of the fluid velocity. Euler equations in the cylindrical coordinates. The cylindrical coordinates (r, ϕ, z)

are related to the orthogonal Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z) by

r =

√ x2 + y2, tanϕ = y/x, z = z (sinϕ = y/r);

x = r cosϕ, y = r sinϕ, z = z,

where 0 ≤ ϕ ≤ 2π.
