The statistical equations of turbulent flows were derived by Boussinesq and Reynolds, in cases where density p is ~nstant, using a separation of each random quantity w into its average value w and a fluctuation w", so w" = O. For the general case when the density is variable, the same "Reynolds average" may be used, but the formulae are not simple and the physical meanings of the terms are not clear. In order to express the principles of physics with the fundamental quantities per unit volume pw, such as mass p, momentum pUi, internal energy pe, entropy ps, Favre retains the separation into the average value
