The linearized Burnett equation for the dynamic pressure of a relativistic gas of hadrons is calculated from a relativistic kinetic theory. It is shown, as in a previous paper [1], that the coefficient of the term with a non-homogeneous temperature field, – the heating term – is bigger than the one with the divergence of the four-velocity, – the bulk viscosity term.
