We <strong>in</strong>troduce non-dimensional variables by p = r / r sur j and T = t / w. The non-dimensional<br />

rotation<br />

rate Wn is def<strong>in</strong>ed by<br />

We estimate that Wn = 10 6 , which is very large. This value measures the importance of rotation<br />

as compared to thermal diffusion, and can be thought of as a Peclet number. The non-dimensional<br />

model is<br />

T(po,O,t)<br />

Tp(l, 0, t)<br />

(9b)<br />

(9c)<br />

Here Po == roil/rsurj, Q = Qrsurj/Koh, while k = 1 <strong>in</strong> the chill region and k = Kco/Koh <strong>in</strong> the core.<br />

A schematic plot of the geometry is shown <strong>in</strong> Fig. 3.<br />

We look for a solution to (9) <strong>in</strong> the form<br />

(l1c)<br />

Next, we seek a solution to (11) <strong>in</strong> the rapid rotation limit Wn ~ 1. <strong>In</strong> the outer region, def<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

away from the nip near ¢ = 0, we substitute<br />

the expansion<br />

S<strong>in</strong>ce F 1 is periodic <strong>in</strong> ¢, it follows that f~7r F1¢d¢ = 0. Therefore, upon <strong>in</strong>tegrat<strong>in</strong>g (13b), we<br />
