Course content
Reversible and irreversible processes. Irreversible processes in homogeneous systems: basic conception - flow and production of entropy and their application on heat convention, homogeneous chemical reaction and combination of processes. Universal relation for production of entropy. Flow and impulsive source: fenomenological equitation and their application on energy and material transfer. Fenomenological coefficients and treir significance. Onsager principle of reciprocite (OPR), Onsager and Casimir secondary coefficients. Application of OPR on some chemical reaction in the near of equilibrium. Description of some linear processes, Glansdorff-Prigogin evolution criteria. Steady states - significance and their application on chemical reactions. Periodic chemical reactions: conditions of existence and characterization of oscillation systems. Lotka-Volterr model, mathematical analysis of nonlinear differential kinetic equations and their linearization in vicinage of stationary points. Special types of oscillation reactions. Ecological systems: Verhulst equation of logistic growth and its application on live systems, mathematical description of mutations and division of work.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing), Work with text (with textbook, with book)
Learning outcomes
The target of subject is making the students acquainted with basest of irreversible thermodynamic. Introduce basic fenomenological equitation and evolutional criteria of ecological system and they usage. Introduce and explain oscillation reaction.
After pass of subject, the students have wide knowledge about thermodynamic and know of models of ecological system.
Prerequisites
The knowledge from bachelor study is expected.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination

The form of exam is a discussion on chosen topics. The level of knowledge and application skills is examined.
