Abstract

Considering the azimuthal velocity fields for different radial dependence we obtain the pressure profiles for the thin disk using the general formalism obtained earlier and further look at the profiles of the luminosity flux function using the approach as given recently by Hanawa (1988). It appears that the profile of this function is not very sensitive to change in ther-dependence of the velocity fields.
