    A material-invariant (frame indifferent) version of the Maxwell–Cattaneo law is proposed in which the relaxation rate of the heat flux is given by Oldroyd’s upper-convected derivative. It is shown that the new formulation allows for the elimination of the heat flux, thus yielding a single equation for the temperature field. This feature is to be expected from a truly frame indifferent description.
