Abstract
A system of nearest-neighbor interaction on a one-dimensional lattice is investigated, which has a quasi-stationary (and position-dependent) temperature profile. The rates of heat transfer and entropy change, as well as the diffusion equation for the temperature are studied. A q-state Potts model, and its special case, a two-state Ising model, are considered as an example.
