In case.in2 (not case.in2_st) TEMPS will include the Fermi-Dirac
(electronic) contribution. At least at room temperature this is
probably smaller than the phonon contribution.

Not sure about your second question. In principle all terms such as
this are included in the energy and I doubt that it is possible to
seperate out these terms. Remember that you are not using an orbital
based code, instead an all-electron APW+lo code.
