That said, V and R are constant, so you have : P=nT then, T= P/n; so, the higher the pressure (helding n unchanged), the higher the temperature; the smaller the n (helding the pressure unchanged), the higher the temperature.
So, being a vacuum a state of lower pressure, it lowers temperature.
Sorry, I think your logic is flawed.
The smaller the n (ie. the greater the vacuum), the higher the temp.
There is not a 1:1 exchange of Penis for air. If there was, there would be equilibrium and no more pulling forces. Therefore, there is a reduction in n resulting in a higher T.
It is a fact that water boils at lower temperature under vacuum. Water Boiling Temperature vs Pressure in Vacuum Table Chart
Does this mean that the heat feels hotter? I don’t know.
I understand how a pressure cooker works and agree the higher the pressure (which is CREATED by the added HEAT) in an enclosed environment, the higher the temperature (a different variable from the heat source). It is completely different than the temperature-vacuum discussion.
Its an interesting discussion, but that said, who cares. Lets just try to use heat (but not too much)!
