Thermal Vortex

Last version had some issues towards the end which are fixed now. I also made some cosmetic changes to make the rules feel more familiar. Apologies if you tried the last one and did not get a resolution.
Rules
- Fillomino: Divide a grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells, where each region contains a number equal to its size. No two regions of the same size can be adjacent horizontally or vertically. Use digits 1-9 to fill the grid. Every digit is present at the edge of the grid at least once.
- Full Rank: Rows and Columns form nine digits number read from the direction of a clue just outside the grid. These numbers are ranked from 1 to 36 in ascending order. There are no ties in ranks.
- Numbers strictly increase from the bulb to the tip on thermometers.
Difficulty 4-5 depending on your experience with full rank.
Play online in Sudokupad.
Solution code: Row 4

Flows nice until one has to close the final gap. Thanks for sharing.
-Yes the final steps are a bit hard. I thought about making it easier, at the same time, it does have some nice full rank logic in it, so I decided to leave it as it is.
