An incompressible inviscid fluid is rotating under gravity g with constant angular
velocity $\Omega$ about the z-axis, which is vertical, so that $u = (−\Omega y, \Omega x, 0)$ relative
to fixed Cartesian axes. We wish to find the surfaces of constant pressure, and
hence surface of a uniformly rotating bucket of water (which will be at atmospheric
pressure).
Bernoulli's equation suggests that $$p/\rho+|u|^2/2+gz=\text{constant. So,}$$


$$z=\text{constant}-\frac{\Omega^2}{2g}(x^2+y^2)$$

But this suggests that the surface of a rotating bucket of water is at its highest in
the middle, where is this going wrong?

Many thanks
