✦ Synopsis

The real states, processes and stability relations of the operation of sensors have been described by irreversible thermodynamic methods. It has been realized with the help of extensive and intensive parameters, using fundamental properties of the entropy function. General form of thermodynamic motion equations, reasons of irreversibility and non-linearity, authentic non-linear source density functions and variational principles have been given. The causes of ceasing stability and arising unstable states have also been shown. Conditions for strongly non-linear and unstable phenomena (singularity, catastrophe and chaos) have been analysed too. The validity of the theory presented has been demonstrated by specific examples.
