Fluid mechanics

the result that slow steady flow in a rapidly rotating fluid cannot vary along the rotation axis, so fluid moves in columns parallel to that axis.

In fluid mechanics, Taylor-Proudman theorem refers to the result that slow steady flow in a rapidly rotating fluid cannot vary along the rotation axis, so fluid moves in columns parallel to that axis. This meaning comes from Proudman (1916) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Containing Papers of a Mathematical and Physical Character.[1]
