Abstract

A dynamic equation for velocity structure functions Sn(r)=<(u(x)u(x))n>S_{n}(r) = <(u(x)-u(x'))^{n}> in strong turbulence is derived in the one-loop (eddy viscosity) approximation. This homogemeous differential equation yields scaling exponents ξn\xi_{n} in the relations Sn(r)rξnS_{n}(r)\propto r^{\xi_{n}} which are in a very good agreement with experimental data.
