A self-consistent solution for a thin accretion disk with turbulent co
nvection is presented. The turbulent convection plays a double role: i
t provides the disk viscosity and takes part in the vertical transport
of the released energy. Rather than assuming arbitrary phenomenologic
al parameterizations for the disk viscosity, the latter is derived fro
m a physical model for turbulence. Employing this model, we express th
e turbulent viscosity and the vertically averaged convective flux in t
erms of the local physical conditions of the disk which, in turn, are
controlled by the former two. The resulting self-consistent disk struc
ture, and the ratio between the convective and total fluxes are obtain
ed for radiation and gas pressure dominated regions, and for electron
scattering and free-free absorption opacities. In the gas pressure reg
ion, two distinct solutions are obtained. In one, the convective flux
is much larger than the radiative flux and the blackbody region extend
s over the entire gas pressure region and could also extend down to th
e inner boundary of the disk. In this solution the temperature profile
is close to adiabatic. In the other solution, the convective flux is
about a third of the total flux, the dimensionless superadiabatic temp
erature gradient is similar to 0.6 and there exist the gas pressure bl
ackbody and electron scattering regions as well as an inner radiation
pressure region. In the radiation pressure region, the temperature pro
file is very close to adiabatic, and the disk is geometrically thin an
d optically thick even for super Eddington accretion rates. The fracti
on of the convective flux, out of the total flux, increases with the a
ccretion rate, and for accretion rates comparable to the Eddington lim
it is close to 1. This variation stabilizes the radiation pressure reg
ion so that all the disk solutions are secularily stable. The values o
f the effective or-parameter are rather small: less than or similar to
5 x 10(-4), similar to 1 x 10(-3), and similar to 5 x 10(-3) for radi
ation pressure region and for the two solutions in the gas pressure re
gion, respectively.
