+//! Smart initialization heuristic for thermodynamic system solvers.
+//!
+//! This module provides [`SmartInitializer`], which generates physically
+//! reasonable initial guesses for the solver state vector from source and sink
+//! temperatures. It uses the Antoine equation to estimate saturation pressures
+//! for common refrigerants without requiring an external fluid backend.
+//!
+//! # Algorithm
+//!
+//! 1. Estimate evaporator pressure: `P_evap = P_sat(T_source - ΔT_approach)`
+//! 2. Estimate condenser pressure: `P_cond = P_sat(T_sink + ΔT_approach)`
+//! 3. Clamp `P_evap` to `0.5 * P_critical` if it exceeds the critical pressure
+//! 4. Fill the state vector with `[P, h_default]` per edge, using circuit topology
+//!
+//! # Supported Fluids
+//!
+//! Built-in Antoine coefficients are provided for:
+//! - R134a, R410A, R32, R744 (CO2), R290 (Propane)
+//!
+//! Unknown fluids fall back to sensible defaults (5 bar / 20 bar) with a warning.
+//!
+//! # No-Allocation Guarantee
+//!
+//! [`SmartInitializer::populate_state`] writes to a pre-allocated `&mut [f64]`
+//! slice and performs no heap allocation.
