One investigates the transport properties of some nanowires, taking into account the shape of their cross-section. One considers more especially square and equilateral triangle cross-sections. The transport equations are defined and then, using the maximum entropy principle, the authors derive an extended hydrodynamic model, and lastly the electron mobility is carefully analyzed.
