The spectral line broadening can be deduced from the profile of the correlation function of the scanner CORAVEL. An investigation of the correlation profile of the cepheids (SV Vul, X Cyg, Delta Cep) reveals a strong variation of the line width with the pulsation phase. These variations probably result from a strong variation of turbulence during pulsation. The variation of the kinetic energy contained in the turbulent motions is not negligible in relation to the kinetic energy of the pulsation. These turbulence variations can affect the estimations of the cepheid radii according to the Baade-Wesselink method.
