contents Transformation Acoustics emerged in the mid-2000s, initiating a new paradigm of metamaterial designs. One of the most compelling designs, the invisibility cloak, holds promise for stealth and noise reduction applications in aviation. However, adapting this design to meet the demands of realistic conditions has proven challenging. This work focusses on the design of a stationary 2D cylindrical cloak and its performance whilst rotating, a result not yet reported in the literature. The study utilises linearised equations of motion with convective terms. A wave equation is derived, and corresponding solution and scattering coefficient are derived using a perturbation method and exact numerical solution. These results are used to evaluate the performance of the rotating cloak. Results show that rotation causes a reduction in cloaking performance with greater scattering observed for increasing rotational speeds, with a reasonable agreement (within 5%) between methods over the range of applicability. The perturbation method offers a fast, computationally inexpensive means of evaluating a rotating, graded anisotropic fluid.
