Abstract
This work is devoted to the examination of the suitability of some sec ond moment closures. The main result emerging is that there is a stron g link between the realizability of the Reynolds stress closures and t he hyperbolicity of the first-order differential system associated wit h the general governing set of partial differential equations.
