We derive thermodynamically consistent models of reaction-diffusion equations coupled to a heat equation. While the total energy is conserved, the total entropy serves as a driving functional such that the full coupled system is a gradient…

A diffusion interface two-phase magnetohydrodynamic model has been used for matched densities in our previous work [1,2], which may limit the applications of the model. In this work, we derive a thermodynamically consistent diffuse…
