Constraints of Compound Systems: Prerequisites for Thermodynamic Modeling Based on Shannon Entropy

Thermodynamic modeling of extensive systems usually implicitly assumes the additivity of entropy. Furthermore, if this modeling is based on the concept of Shannon entropy, additivity of the latter function must also be guaranteed. In this case, the constituents of a thermodynamic system are treated...
