Simple, illustrative model of a rotating disk-wind. In this example, we assume a uniform nuclear disk of inclination i = 70° in Keplerian rotation (vK) in response to an SMBH of mass 7 × 106M and a negligible disk mass. We let the outflow velocity vout = avK with a = 1. We restrict the disk radius to r = 20 pc and do not include the molecular jet in the model. We let the wind have an inclination to the rotating disk of ϕ = 25° giving the wind an opening angle of 50°. The structure is “observed” with a resolution of 1 pc. Top panel: model moment 1 (velocity field) map showing the resulting rotating wind. Lower panel: model transversal pV cut at a distance from the centre.
