Abstract
1. The steady motion of an incompressible viscous fluid, due to an infinite rotating plane lamina, has been considered by Kármán. If r, θ, z are cylindrical polar coordinates, the plane lamina is taken to be z = 0; it is rotating with constant angular velocity ω about the axis r = 0. We consider the motion of the fluid on the side of the plane for which z is positive; the fluid is infinite in extent and z = 0 is the only boundary. If u, v, w are the components of the velocity of the fluid in the directions of r, θ and z increasing, respectively, and p is the pressure, then Kármán shows that the equations of motion and continuity are satisfied by taking
