Thermodynamics and Dynamic Stability: Extended Theories of Heat Conduction

The fundamental dynamic stability of heat conduction theories beyond Fourier is analyzed in the framework of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. It is shown, that the thermodynamic framework, concave entropy and nonnegative entropy production, can ensure the stability of homogeneous thermodynamic equilibrium. Various special heat conduction theories of Extended Thermodynamics are compared and analysed in the general framework.

Generalized ballistic-conductive heat conduction in isotropic materials

The general isotropic constitutive equations of heat conduction with second sound and ballistic propagation in isotropic materials is given using Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics with Internal Variables (NET-IV). The consequences of Onsager reciprocity between thermodynamic fluxes and forces and positive definiteness of the entropy production is considered. The relation to theories of Extended Thermodynamics is discussed in detail.
