Abstract
Einstein's gravitational theory is analyzed from a thermodynamic point of view. A thermodynamic potential characterizing the sources of gravitational fields is presented. By means of this potential the entropy production density is derived. Einstein's equations with dissipative terms appear as linear phenomenological laws in the sense of irreversible thermodynamics. Some thermodynamic influences on gravitational phenomena are discussed.
