Euler wind

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Euler wind (or Euler wind ) is a current of air that blows only due to pressure differences, neglecting the Coriolis force , centrifugal force or frictional force . It occurs particularly in areas around the equator (due to the lack of Coriolis force) and with local pressure differences. It is named after Leonhard Euler .
