Abstract
We obtain coupled reaction-diffusion equations for the density and temperature of a dense fluid, starting from a discrete model in which at most one particle can be present at each site. The model is constructed by the methods of statistical dynamics. We verify that the theory obeys the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Some remarks on measurement theory for the position of a particle are offered.
