My scifi novel about Boltzmann constant

Hi!

 

I am writing a short novel where the manipulation of Boltzmann constant is the key idea of the plot. I suppose this constant is not constant under especial conditions. A quantum computer use the increasing of available microstates in order to resemble a kind of "Maxwell's Demon" to reduce the entropy.

 

What do you think about this?

In science fiction, I have only read "The Practice Effect" by David Brin that is related also to decreasing entropy. But in this novel is not clear the mechanism and I want to give a more scientific point of view to my novel.

 

I have written a half part of my novel and I want to publish online like ebook. I appreciate your opinions.
