A particularly simple chaotic nonequilibrium open system with two Cartesian degrees of freedom, characterized by two distinct temperatures T(x) and T(y), is introduced. The two temperatures are maintained by Nose-Hoover canonical-ensemble thermostats. Both the equilibrium (no net heat transfer) and nonequilibrium (dissipative) Lyapunov spectra are characterized for this simple system.
