The basic closures of fluid mechanics in form characteristic for the Finite Volume Method

This short article presents all basic “closures” that are needed to supplementation the general set of balance equations in form characteristic for the Finite Volume Method. In subsequent chapters the equation of state, viscous molecular stress tensor, turbulent stress tensor, molecular heat flux, turbulent heat flux and momentum and energy sources were described. This article is a second part of a cycle dedicated for the mathematical basis of Finite Volume Method. The motivation for writing the article follows from the observation that the Finite Volume Method is usually described in greater detail in monographic books, or very briefly in the basic books dedicated to fluid mechanics. This article is an attempt to center justifications of these approaches, so that in the simplest way show the readers the basic knowledge of the so-called Computational Fluid Mechanics. For this reason this article can be treated as a literature review.
