Contact Temperature as an Internal Variable of Discrete Systems in Non-Equilibrium

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Advanced Structured Materials ((STRUCTMAT,volume 89))

Abstract

State space and entropy rate of a discrete non-equilibrium system are shortly considered including internal variables and the contact temperature. The concept of internal variables in the context of non-equilibrium thermodynamics of a closed discrete system is discussed. The difference between internal variables and degrees of freedom are repeated, and different types of their evolution equations are mentioned in connection with Gérard A. Maugin’s numerous papers on applications of internal variables. The non-equilibrium contact temperature is recognized as an internal variable and its evolution equation is presented.
