 Barotropic closure of a razor-thin disk

A two-dimensional disk equation with pressure acceleration $-{\Sigma }^{-1}\nabla P$ requires an equation of state for vertically integrated pressure $P$ in terms of surface density of a disk $\Sigma$. A barotropic fluid closure is $P=P(\Sigma )$, with linear enthalpy perturbation $h^{\prime }=c_s^2{\Sigma }^{\prime }/{\Sigma }_0$. Merely giving $P=P(\rho )$ for a volume density does not close the two-dimensional equations unless a vertical conversion $\rho (\Sigma )$ is specified. Positive $c_s^2$ gives ordinary pressure restoration of an inertial-acoustic wave.
