The divergence of an axisymmetric field in cylindrical form #

On the meridional plane {x₂ = 0} away from the axis, the Cartesian divergence of a smooth axisymmetric field is the cylindrical divergence ∂_r u_r + u_r/r + ∂_z u_z, the left-hand side of eq:aniso:scalar:nse:div. The only input is the θ-derivative relation ∂₂u₂ = u_r/r of spatialPartial_one_one_meridional; the identity is pointwise and does not use the equation.
