Abstract
In this work, the effect of the phase lag in heat flux, under the effect of the hyperbolic heat conduction model, on the nonequilibrium entropy produc tion is investigated. It is shown that the entropy production cannot be des cribed using the classical form of the equilibrium entropy production where using this form Lads to a violation of the second late of thermodynamics. Also, it is shown that in most practical applications, the difference betwe en equilibrium and nonequilibrium temperature in the hyperbolic heat conduc tion model may be neglected. The effect of the phase lag ill heat flux on t he spacial and time variation in nonequilibrium entropy is studied.
