autobarotropy

The state of a fluid that is characterized by both barotropy and piezotropy, that is, pressure and density surfaces coincide. This condition guarantees that the fluid will remain barotropic at all future times. Example: an ideal homentropic fluid (i.e., a fluid with homogeneous potential temperature) with uniform composition.
