contents We establish in the present paper two sub-gradient estimates for the quaternionic contact (qc) heat equation on a compact qc manifold of dimension $4n+3$, provided some positivity conditions are satisfied. These are qc versions of the prominent Li-Yau gradient estimate in Riemannian geometry. Another goal of this paper is to get two Perelman-type entropy formulas for the qc heat equation on a compact qc-Einstein manifold of dimension $4n+3$ with non-negative qc scalar curvature (e.g. compact $3$-Sasakian manifold), as well as an integral sub-gradient estimate for the positive solutions of the qc heat equation.
