A new consistency condition is derived for the Reynolds stress turbulent closures. Recommended values of model constants used with the k‐ϵ model and with various Reynolds stress closures do not satisfy this condition exactly. It is shown that a slight adjustment of certain computer‐optimized constants would make some of these models internally consistent.
