Re: Covert Cartesian Coordinates Into Cylindrical Coordinates

In the first equation: substitute
Vx = Vr * Cos (theta)
Vy = Vr * Sin (theta)
Vz = Vz
Then do the partial differentiation of the x and y coordinates and you will come up with equation 2. The cosines and sines cancel out. If they dont, then you made a mistake somewhere.The z coordinate stays the same. This is the momentum equation/navier stokes equation and sometimes easier to solve in a spherical or cylindrical system.
who is the author of this book?
