Description
Within the system boundaries, irreversible internal flows of heat and matter along gradients or internal transformations (chemical reactions) contribute to the internal entropy production, diS. In contrast, external flows, Ie, of heat, work and matter proceed reversibly across the system boundaries (of zero thickness).
