Abstract
A generalized relative entropy functional is associated to the evolution of gas in a container with (generally) non‐uniform boundary data. A decomposition for its rate in ‘bulk’ and in ‘boundary’ terms is given; for the linear case both have a definite sign. The relation with the strong L~1~ stability is pointed out.
