Favre averaging is the density-weighted averaging method, used in variable density or compressible turbulent flows, in place of the Reynolds averaging. The method was introduced formally by the French physicist Alexandre Favre in 1965, although Osborne Reynolds had also already introduced the density-weighted averaging in 1895.
