Turbulent viscosity is a value which is assumed to be equal in all directions.

It is the same as Eddy Viscosity

This is a measure of a fluid which is being deformed by stress. The fact that it is turbulent just means it is changing so the internal friction or viscosity is changing constantly and this is why it is called turbulent. the internal friction is the friction within the object hence the term internal however this friction derives from the force of the fluid acting on the object. E.G if air is your fluid surrounding the object and the object is experiencing a change in the velocity of the air it will be exposed to a different amount of stress and will therefore have a different value for internal friction.
