Relativistic phenomenological equations and transformation laws of relative coefficients

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to derive the phenomenological equations in the  context of special relativistic non-equilibrium  thermodynamics with internal variables. In particular, after  introducing  some results  developed in our previous paper, by means of classical non-equilibrium thermodynamic procedure and under suitable assumptions on the entropy density production, the phenomenological equations and transformation laws of phenomenological coefficients are derived. Finally,  some symmetries of aforementioned coefficients are obtained.
