  Abstract:
We derive the Kramers-Moyal equation for the conditional probability density of velocity increments from the theoretical model recently proposed by V. Yakhot [Phys. Rev. E 57, 1737 (1998)] in the limit of the high Reynolds number. We show that the higher order (n ≥ 3) Kramers-Moyal coefficients tend to zero and the velocity increments are evolved by the Fokker-Planck operator. Our result are compatible with the phenomenological description, developed for explaining recent experiments by R. Friedrich and J. Peinke.
