Abstract
This study is dedicated to a micropolar porous body, including voidage time derivative among the independent constitutive variables. We formulate a heat-flux theory in this context taking into account a new set of state variables that includes the heat-flux vector and an evolution equation for it. The mixed initial boundary value problems have the specific feature that the governing system of equations consists of hyperbolic field equations only. Consistency of the theory is supported by a result of uniqueness.
