Can TdS be computed using an area, time double integral of heat flux density?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the calculation of TdS (temperature times entropy) using a double integral of heat flux density over area and time. Participants explore the implications of this method in the context of a growing black hole, questioning whether the inward flow of heat would result in a negative sign for the integral. The consensus suggests that a dominating black hole could indeed act as a TdS reducer due to the divergence of the field within its surface.

Can the TdS by a system be calculated by taking the area, time double integral of the heat flux density?

If so, is it possible that this double-integral would take on an opposite sign if inside there was a dominating, growing black hole, where, I would presume, heat flows inwards, and not outwards? The divergence of the field inside the surface would therefore have an opposite sign, so would a growing blackhole therefore be a TdS reducer?
