In this paper we explore a possibility that all transport turbulent models are contained in a coarse-grained kinetic equation. Building on a recent work by H.Chen et al (2004), we account for fluctuations of a single -point probability density in turbulence, by introducing a``two-level'' (${\bf c,v}$)-phase-space, separating microscopic (${\bf c'\equiv c_{micro}= c-v}$) and hydrodynamic (${\bf v'=v-V}$) modes. Unlike traditional kinetic theories, with hydrodynamic approximations derived in terms of small deviations from thermodynamic equilibrium, the theory developed in this work, is based on a far- from -equilibrium isotropic and homogeneous turbulence as an unperturbed state. The expansion in dimensionless rate of strain leads to a new class of turbulent models, including the well-known ${\cal K}-{\cal E}$, Reynolds stress and all possible nonlinear models. The role of interaction of the fluxes in physical space with the energy flux across the scales, not present in standard modeling, is demonstrated on example of turbulent channel flow. To close the system, neither equation for turbulent kinetic energy nor information on pressure-velocity correlations, contained in the derived coarse-grained kinetic equation, are needed.
