It is often stated and proved in textbooks that the momentum density is also the energy flux.
The explanation is often done using the dust model.
However, it is possible that in a real fluid, there is heat conduction via particle collision. There is energy flux, but since no molecules are ever transported in the IRF, how come there is momentum density?
