title: Quasiparticles in a thermal process.
abstract: We introduce an abstract scalar field and a covariant field equation, by which we make an attempt to connect the Fourier heat conduction and wave-like heat propagation. This field can be the generalization of the usual temperature from a dynamical point of view. It is shown that a kind of effective mass of this thermal process can be calculated. Finally, we express the unit of dissipative action with the help of universal constants.
