    Notes:
    Abstract With the assumption of an elementary physical concept meteorologically effective radiative processes (absorption-emission, scattering) can be included consistently in nonequilibrium thermodynamics of irreversible phenomena. Analogously to the usual Gibbs relations a fundamental equation was formulated for monochromatic light rays as the nucleus of the theory. Using the methods of classical irreversible theory, a complete entropy balance equation is derived in which the entropy variations of the mass as well as of the radiation field are explicitly represented. The resulting entropy source strength functionσ through its analytical structure reveals the dynamical character of the irreversible variation terms. Theσ-expression being positive according to the second law of thermodynamics is found to have a bilinear form as a function of the irreversible fluxes representing the entropy generating radiative processes and their conjugated thermodynamic forces. The mathematical structure and the positive sign ofσ, following the usual line of reasoning, motivate the assumption of constitutive relations for the irreversible radiative processes. These equations developed from purely thermodynamical reasoning turn out to be equivalent to the usual radiative transfer equation which is founded on a very different theoretical concept. A very fundamental relationship can be deduced in this context from the entropy production function. It provides a direct thermodynamical proof that in nonscattering media the definition of a local temperature is necessarily accompanied by the validity of the Kirchhoff law.
