The research aims to understand how boundary microprocesses can create stationary states that are non-isothermal.
Formulated boundary exchange with a collision-conditioned transition kernel.
Introduced a flux-weighted effective number of accessible states and associated effective entropy.
Developed a minimal 1D normal-channel model to study collision weights and state densities.
Derived particle and energy flux functionals from a two-wall operator.
Analyzed boundary shifts to reveal inconsistencies between particle and energy flux stationarity.
The study identifies robust structural non-isothermal stationarity influenced by boundary conditions.
Demonstrates that adsorption shifts ($V_A eq V_B$) affect flux stationarity distinct from bulk gradients.
Establishes a work-extraction and regeneration cycle based on kernel-class switching.
Highlights deviations from common thermodynamic assumptions while preserving key dynamics.
