The formula is Carnot COP=Thot/Thot-Tcold

Your meaning is clear, but some parentheses would not go amiss: COP=Thot/(Thot-Tcold).

Also, holy shit this is a fun post, at least for those of us who have a proper appreciation for autistic infodumping. Thank you for writing it!

I guess this is a good time for me to complain that division should be the last order of operation, because (1) ime that's usually what you want to minimize parentheses and (2) that's the way it works when you're writing equations in latex or by hand and drawing horizontal lines with a numerator and denominator.
