This lecture covers the thermodynamics of irreversible processes, focusing on the linear phenomenological relations, Onsager-Casimir reciprocity relations, transport phenomena like Fourier's law and Fick's law, and effects such as Seebeck and Peltier. It also discusses the dynamics of fluids, the Navier-Stokes equation, and applications of thermodynamics in chemistry and electrochemistry.
