In a rotational domain, the absolute velocity, $\overrightarrow{\boldsymbol{U}}_\text{absolute}$, of each fluid element could be treated as the summation of a relative velocity, $\overrightarrow{\boldsymbol{U}}_\text{relative}$, and a velocity due to the rotating frame, $\overrightarrow{\Omega}\times \overrightarrow{r}$.
