Abstract The statistical properties of the velocity differences are experimentally investigated in a turbulent jet-flow at moderate Re λ by X-probe hot wire anemometry measurements. It is found that the traverse velocity components show a more intermittent behavior with respect to the longitudinal ones. This result is obtained by the analysis of the longitudinal and transverse intermittency exponents measured by the Extended Self-Similarity form of scaling, and by the comparison of the longitudinal and transverse velocity difference Probability Distribution Functions.
