Abstract: Turbulence spectra in superfluids are modified by the nonlinear energy dissipation caused by the mutual friction between quantized vortices and the normal component of the liquid. We have found a new state of fully developed turbulence which occurs in some range of two Reynolds parameters characterizing the superfluid flow. This state displays both the Kolmogorov–Obukhov $\frac53$-scaling law $E_k \propto k^{-5/3}$ and a new "$3$-scaling law" $E_k \propto k^{-3}$, each in a well-separated range of $k$.
