The effect of excess internal energy upon the dynamics of an antiphase boundary was considered within the framework of the Onsager theory of linear response. The internal energy transport required a temperature hump in the transition region, and caused a drag effect. An evolution equation was derived that took account of the finite thermal conductivity.
