Recently Gough et al. (1993) have argued that the rotation rate in parts of the solar convection zone may be constant on cylinders as predicted by models of the convection zone, contrary to the inferences generally made from helioseismology. Here we consider models similar to those suggested by Gough et al. and show that they are either inconsistent with observations made by Fourier Tachometer or require unphysical rotation rates in other parts of the Sun. These observations use a more detailed model of the effects of the solar rotation on the observed frequencies than that used in reducing previous observations. We also show the results of an inversion of the Fourier Tachometer observations and compare it with an inversion of data similar to that used previously. The result of this inversion generally confirms the conclusions from previous inversions.
