Shows, that it is possible to expand the existing theory of irreversible processes to processes of useful transformation of any forms of energy by a finding of motive forces and the speeds of real processes as derivative of energy, but not entropy; that for such processes there are differential reciprocal relations with Onsager’s symmetry and Cazimir’s anti-symmetry conditions resulting from them; that Maxwell’s equations follows from these correlation, confirming their equity for a wide class of processes, satisfying to these equations
