The three conditions necessary for adequate modeling of the atmospheric vortical structures of the Jupiter Red-Spot type are quasi-two-dimensionality, large scale, and cyclonic-anticyclonic asymmetry. It is shown that these conditions are satisfied only in the experiments of Nezlin (1986), Nezlin and Snezhkin (1990), and Antipov et al. (1988). Using the results of a simulation of spiral structures of gaseous galactic disks, it is hypothesized that the friction between these structures and stars is physically analogous to the Rayleigh friction between shallow water and the bottom of a vessel. Due to this analogy, data from experiments with rotating shallow water can be used to adequately model galactic spiral structures.
