Abstract
The statistics of a temperature increment across a distance in the ine rtial range in isotropic turbulence is discussed on the basis of the O bukhov-Corrsin similarity, the extensive use of the Kolmogorov refined similarity hypothesis and the three-dimensional tetranomial Cantor se t model for isotropic turbulence with a passive advected scalar. The r esult compares well with available experimental data.
