The gradient-squared identity for axisymmetric fields on the meridional plane #
On the meridional plane {x₂ = 0} away from the axis, the full Cartesian
gradient-squared ∑ᵢ ∑ⱼ (∂ⱼ vᵢ)² splits into the meridional part ∑ᵢ ((∂₁ vᵢ)² + (∂₃ vᵢ)²)
plus the angular contribution (v₀² + v₁²) / r². This is eq:aniso:closure:gradient.

For an axisymmetric field on the meridional plane, off the axis, the full Cartesian
gradient-squared equals the meridional gradient-squared plus the 1/r² angular
contribution.
