A geometrically thin, energy accumulating $aL‐disk is suggested which orbits a Kerr black hole. With increasing internal forces, the “standard” disks develop into energy accumulating disks. These accumulating disks are geometrically thin as long as their internal forces remain below a certain bound, allowing nearly geodesic orbits.
