Rotating-frame magnetohydrodynamic momentum equation

ID: rotating-frame-magnetohydrodynamic-momentum-equation

For a rigid frame with constant angular velocity , add the Coriolis force and centrifugal force to the inviscid magnetohydrodynamic momentum equation. A constant magnetic permeability and solenoidal magnetic-field constraint split the Lorentz force density into magnetic pressure and magnetic tension. This nonrelativistic conducting-fluid approximation neglects the displacement current, net electric-charge force and viscosity. Differential rotation belongs to the fluid's velocity field, not to a spatially varying rigid-frame rotation vector. A time-dependent frame requires the additional Euler force.
