[ExI] fluid dynamics question/modeling

I was thinking today about what a rotating disc (or rather series of
concentric rotating rings) would look like if each ring was made to rotate
at an angular velocity that made them all have equal linear velocity at any
given point.  I suppose it would look something like a spiral?  If this was
at the bottom of a cylindrical tank of water, would the water just be
still?  Was wondering about this because I saw something about Saturn's
hexagon possibly being the result of differing latitudinal wind
velocities.  Is there a program that would make this easy to model?
