Expansion toward non-isothermal applications and publication architecture

Broadening from the Formal Core into a scientific and publication framework with developed application cases and governance layers.

Principal developments

• Non-isothermal, zeotropic, CFQM and Thermal Matching T–Q applications became structured cases addressing gliding temperatures, refrigerant trajectories and alternative heat-transfer configurations.
• CarnotX and the companion-book architecture were developed so the Formal Core could serve as a shared reference, while applications, education and software retained distinct roles.
• Evidence and epistemic-status governance were strengthened by separating established relations, interpretation, proposed method, illustrative calculations and claims requiring validation.
• The operationalization was positioned as constructive use of established Carnot and Clausius relations: more than a consistency check, but explicitly not a new thermodynamic law.
