Vacuum subsystem

Cooling / heating heatpump systems would likely be integrated in the back-walls as
externally solid-state internally other-state (see: machine phase organized other phases) pellet system in
superlube tubes with good thermal contact and low friction transport.
Quite well factored apart form the geometry of the molecular mills and larger assembly robotics.

• Heat very much likes to flow across diamond and diamond like compounds.
• Heat does very much not like to flow across vacuum. Only transmission via IR light there.

=> Design of molecular mills be influenced by considerations about thermal flow and internal reflection of phonons.

• Chemomechanical converters or other stuff in the power system may need cooling.
• Piezochemical reactions must be kept cool
• Recuperation of thermal energy is likely desirable - the "thermal sandwich"
