Work is devoted to studying of a linear mode thermodynamic – a mode which is actively investigated now. One of the main concepts of a linear mode – local entropy rate of production. The purpose of given article consists in expansion of a circle of problems for which it is possible to calculate a local entropy rate of production, namely its definition, using the experimental “time-temperature” curves of heating/cooling. “Time-temperature” curves heating or cooling are widely used in non-stationary thermophysical experiments at studying properties of substances and materials: phase transitions of the first and second sort, a thermal capacity, thermal diffusivity. The quantitative substantiation of the formula for calculation of the local entropy rate of production in which it is used thermogram (change of temperature from time) which is received by a method of pulse electric heating is resulted. Initial time dependences of electric capacity and temperature are measured on the sample of niobium in a microsecond range simultaneously. Conformity of two dependences of the local entropy rate of production from time is shown: one is calculated under the known formula in which the brought electric capacity is used; another is calculated, using the thermogram.
