      Fundamental conservation laws for the mean turbulent flow of a compressible fluid are considered. The averaged form of the entropy inequality is described, and the thermodynamics of the mean turbulent field is studied. The free energy function and the coldness of turbulence are discussed, and several thermodynamical relationships are established. Based on the averaged Clausius-Duhem inequality, constitutive equations for the mean flow field are developed. The basic equations of motion for compressible flows are derived. The case of incompressible turbulent flows is discussed. It is shown that the resulting governing equations are similar to those of the existing two-equation k-Z model of turbulence.
