Test of Information Theory on the Boltzmann Equation
arXiv:cond-mat/0203036 · doi:10.1143/JPSJ.72.2473
Abstract
We examine information theory using the steady-state Boltzmann equation. In a nonequilibrium steady-state system under steady heat conduction, the thermodynamic quantities from information theory are calculated and compared with those from the steady-state Boltzmann equation. We have found that information theory is inconsistent with the steady-state Boltzmann equation.
