Abstract
In ordinary fluids, the relaxation times of the fluxes are usually very small. One could therefore ask whether the relaxational effects considered in extended irreversible thermodynamics are observable. The answer is affirmative: it is possible to obtain information on such effects either from experiments or numerical simulations. Computer simulations were analysed in Chap. 8 ; in this chapter, we discuss several experimental aspects.
