✦ Synopsis

When fluctuating temperature field is considered to be super imposed on a general field of eddy turbulence, the early period decay phenomena in regard to velocity, temperature and velocity-temperature are guided by three dynamical equations that are obtained here in a straightforward manner. The equations so obtained are simplified for the case of homogeneous turbulence and subsequently for the case of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence.
