Abstract
Abstract A set of closed hydrodynamic-like equations is derived from Boltzmann's transport equation (BTE) describing charge transport in semiconductors. The moment hierarchy is closed by using the entropy principle and the production terms are modeled as relaxation terms consistently with the Onsager Reciprocity Principle. Finally the model is compared with Monte Carlo simulations for silicon.
