Popis: The method of path integrals is used to average the magnetic-induction equation written for the vector potential over the velocity field. This approach avoids the assumption that the random field is two-scale, replacing it with the assumption of short time correlations. As a result of averaging, the classical equation of the mean field is obtained, at least for a homogeneous and isotropic medium. Based on the developed approach, the problem of the average field solenoidality is discussed, as well as a possible generalization of the method to the case of a statistically inhomogeneous and anisotropic flow.
