In this paper, we consider a linear theory for a rigid heat conductor with memory effects for a heat flux in order to deduce explicit formulas for the minimum free energy, which is related to the maximum recoverable work that can be obtained from a given state of a body. Two equivalent forms of this work are given in the frequency domain. Finally, two different expressions for a thermodynamic potential, called pseudofree energy, are introduced for this material.

Abstract
In this paper, we consider a linear theory for a rigid heat conductor with memory effects for a heat flux in order to deduce explicit formulas for the minimum free energy, which is related to the maximum recoverable work that can be obtained from a given state of a body. Two equivalent forms of this work are given in the frequency domain. Finally, two different expressions for a thermodynamic potential, called pseudofree energy, are introduced for this material.File in questo prodotto:
