Balance equations based on the moment method for the transport of electrons in silicon semiconductors are presented. The energy band is assumed to be described by the Kane dispersion relation. The closure relations have been obtained by employing the maximum entropy principle.The validity of the constitutive equations for fluxes and production terms of the balance equations has been checked with a comparison to detailed Monte Carlo simulations in the case of bulk silicon.
