      The quasi-linear hyperbolic system \[ \partial_ tU(x,t)+\partial_ xF(U(x,t))=0 \] is investigated. The author describes several well known conditions for admissible shock waves and wave fans (i.e. solutions U(x,t) of the form \(U(x,t)=V(x/t)).\) The main object of the paper is the discussion of the entropy rate admissibility criterion for wave fans, which was introduced by the author [J. Differ. Equations 14, 202-212 (1973; Zbl 0262.35038)]. In particular, it is shown that the entropy condition implies the admissibility criterion of Liu for wave fans of moderate strength.
