The entropy and mass balance laws \(s_t +u\cdot \nabla s=q,\) \(\rho _t +\text{div}(\rho u)=\xi \rho,\) with the equation of state \(s=c_v \text{ln}\frac{p+P}{\rho ^{\gamma}},\) \(\gamma =c_p /c_v\), \(\xi\) and \(q\) are the intensities of mass and entropy sources, \(P=P(t)\) is the mean pressure, are considered under the assumption that acoustic effects are negligible. An approximation of the entropy balance law is obtained in the form \(\nabla u=\xi+\) \(q/c_p -\) \((\gamma P)^{-1}P^{'}\). For the case when the normal velocity \(u_n \) is prescribed at the boundary \(\Gamma (t)\) of a variable domain \(V(t)\), the mean pressure \(P(t)\) can be found by integrating the latter equation over \(V\), \(\frac{VP^{'}}{\gamma P}=\) \(\int_{V}(\xi +P/c_p )dx-\) \(\int_{\Gamma}u_n d\sigma\). The equation derived is proposed to tackle problems with distributed sources of mass and entropy. It is shown how to get a similar equation for a number of boundary conditions and equations of state involving heat conduction.
