Thermal Transport in a Higher-Order Generalized Hydrodynamics
arXiv:1907.12978
Abstract
Thermal transport in classical fluids is analyzed in terms of a Higher-Order Generalized Hydrodynamics (or Mesoscopic Hydro-Thermodynamics), that is, depending on the evolution of the energy density and its fluxes of all orders. It is derived in terms of a Kinetic Theory based on the Non-Equilibrium Statistical Ensemble Formalism. The general system of coupled evolution equations is derived. Maxwell times - which are of large relevance to determine the character of the motion - are derived. They also have a quite important role for the choice of the contraction of description (limitation in the number of fluxes to be retained) in the study of the hydrodynamic motion. In a description of order 1 it is presented an analysis of the technological process of thermal prototyping.
