Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1981, vol. 107, issue 1, 109-125

Abstract: A Hamiltonian formalism for hydrodynamics of ideal fluids is developed with the help of Seliger and Whitham's variational principle. It is shown that a density distribution function in the phase space of the mass-density, momentum-density and energy-density fields obeys a Liouville-equation
