Which of these represent ensemble averaging if ‘N’ represents the number of identical quantities?(a) \(\frac{1}{N}\int_N \phi dN\)(b) \(lim_{N→∞}\frac{⁡1}{N}\int_N \phi dN\)(c) \(\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^N\phi_i \)(d) \(lim_{N→∞}\frac{⁡1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^N\phi_i \)The question was posed to me in a national level competition.My doubt stems from Turbulence Modelling in chapter Turbulence Modelling of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

The correct CHOICE is (d) \(lim_{N→∞}\FRAC{⁡1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^N\phi_i \)

Explanation: Ensemble AVERAGING is based on IDENTICAL flow variables. It sums up the identical variables and then takes the average. The equation is \(lim_{N→∞}\frac{⁡1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^N\phi_i \).
