Abstract

Intermittency, measured as $\log \left({F(r)}/{3}\right)$ , where F(r) is the flatness of velocity increments at scale r, is found to rapidly increase as viscous effects intensify, and eventually saturate at very small scales. This feature defines a finite intermediate range of scales between the inertial and dissipation ranges, that we shall call near-dissipation range. It is argued that intermittency is multiplied by a universal factor, independent of the Reynolds number Re, throughout the near-dissipation range. The (logarithmic) extension of the near-dissipation range varies as $\sqrt{\log Re}$ . As a consequence, scaling properties of velocity increments in the near-dissipation range strongly depend on the Reynolds number.
