  • Linear phenomenological laws  + ('''Linear phenomenological laws''' are at '''Linear phenomenological laws''' are at the core of the thermodynamics of irreversible processes TIP, considered to apply near equilibrium but more generally in transport processes (e.g. Fick's law).

This paradigm is challenged by the [[ergodynamics |ergodynamic concept]] of fundamentally non-linear isomorphic flux-[[force]] relations and is replaced by the generalized isomorphic flux-[[pressure]] relations. Flows ''I'' [MU·s<sup>-1</sup>] and forces ''F'' [J·MU<sup>-1</sup>] are conjugated pairs, the product of which yields power, ''I''·''F'' = ''P'' [J·s<sup>-1</sup> = W].
