⚙️ Quantum Heat Engine

Interactive quantum Otto-cycle heat engine: a truncated harmonic oscillator runs through adiabatic compression, hot isochoric heating, adiabatic expansion and cold isochoric cooling with real Boltzmann populations, live work and heat bookkeeping, and measured efficiency compared to the 1-omega_c/omega_h bound.
