Star Trek is downright magical with heat, anyway. The TNG tech manual does give a glance to the laws of thermodynamics by sprinkling heat sinks here or there, but it’s almost comical. Even at 99% efficiency, warp cires are putting out so much power that warp 5 would cook the crew.
We pretty much have to assume they have some way sinking heat into subspace.

Put Star Trek ships and people into the MechWarrior/Battletech universe, and watch the consoles explode before they get hit.
