This research paper presents a critical study of the ‘Rational irreversible thermodynamics’ framework on evaluating its theoretical foundations and practical applications. A comprehensive review of existing framework and theoretical analysis has been carried out. We identify the principles, assumptions, and limitations inherent in rational irreversible thermodynamics. Our findings highlight discrepancies between theoretical predictions and experimental observations, particularly in highly non-equilibrium systems. The critical evaluation presented in this study elucidates the challenges and opportunities in rational irreversible thermodynamics, leading the way for future research.
