Hydraulic energy is constructed from real and imaginary energies. Their acting directions are normal to each other. Their physical properties are quite different. All the physical parameters, such as force, velocity, and acceleration therefore consist of two different type real and imaginary functions. Physically, there are three different types of fluid particles rotational motion: straightly forward non-rotational motion, which is based upon kinetic real physical parameters, circularly forward rotational motion, which is based upon un-kinetic imaginary physical parameters, and their combined rotational motion. Their interrelation is shown in diagram.
