Abstract
Thermodynamic evaluation of energy conversion processes requires all energy and entropy fluxes to be known. The basic equations to calculate radiation entropy and the major input functions, namely the spectral and hemispherical distribution of radiation intensity and its degree of polarization, are presented. Furthermore, the entropy production rate due to interaction between radiation and condensed matter is calculated. Minimization of the entropy production rate can be achieved by means of the balance equations.
