Turbulent flows play a major role in many fields of science and industry. Noticeable attention is seen on turbulent flows of suspending fibers because of the sensitivity of the electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the connecting fiber composites to the spatial configuration and orientation of fibers. The involvement of fibers in the turbulent flow greatly affects the turbulent energy. It is more influenced when the turbulent flow occurs in a rotating system. The effect of fibers on the turbulent energy in the rotating frame must therefore be investigated. For turbulent energy with fiber suspension, a mathematical model can be built in a rotating system that is very important to enhance the quality of industrial goods. This paper, therefore, develops a mathematical model for turbulent energy motion in a rotating frame with a fiber suspension. The model was formulated using the averaging procedure. The momentum equation for incompressible and viscous fluid turbulent flow was considered to develop the model. The turbulent energy motion of the fiber suspensions was presented in the rotating frame in second-order correlation tensors,, and, where all the tensors are the function of time, distance, and space coordinates.
