Abstract
A new generalization of the Reynolds stress concept is used to derive a model for the rapid limit that can provide physically more realistic predictions in situations of rotational mean flows, as compared to RST and lower level closures. Transport equations are here solved for a fourth rank tensor, leaving the Reynolds stress transport equations without need for any modelling. It contains 27 independent elements, and the Reynolds stress tensor is retrieved when the last two indices are contracted, whereas the structure tensor is obtained when the first two are contracted.
