Abstract

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.
