Abstract A four cold-wire probe, which allows all three components of the temperature dissipation rate ɛ θ to be measured, is “calibrated” in decaying grid turbulence, where 〈ɛ θ 〉, the mean value of ɛ θ , can be determined accurately from the decay of the temperature variance 〈θ 2〉. The probe yields values of the three components of 〈ɛ θ 〉 which are in reasonable agreement with local isotropy, in the range x 1/M?50. The pdfs and spectra of the three temperature derivatives also satisfy local isotropy reasonably well.
