dc.descriptionSeveral models of quantum open systems are known at present to violate, according to principles of the standard quantum theory of open systems, the second law of thermodynamics. Here, a new and rather trivial model of another type is suggested describing mechanism that violates, according to the same principles, the zeroth and the second laws of thermodynamics simultaneously. Up to a technically minor modification, the model resembles some models already known, solved by standard means, and properly understood. Universal validity of two basic principles of thermodynamics in strictly quantum situations is thus simultaneously called in question.
