The analysis of the fully developed turbulence with the help of the binomial multiplicative process is reinvestigated from the standpoint of Tsallis nonextensive statistics in order to provide some insight in understanding the underlying physical meaning of the Tsallis ensemble. The formula is derived which relates Tsallis index q with the intermittency exponent μ that is a manifestation of multifractality of the sizes of eddies. It is shown that the probability density function of the local dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy can be represented by a distribution function of the type in Tsallis statistics with the index q determined by the experimentally observable quantity μ through the derived formula.
