I'm rather frequently get stuck with Mathcad 14 claiming that a variable is not defined- but its not a variable but a function at the left side of a find statement,
The solve block indeed works pretty well with a vector on the left side of the find statement.
I have the impression that copying into a new sheet sometimes helps. I think this is an error by design.
Tracing and troubleshooting errors in Mathcad has long been an art form; like Microsoft's, the error messages only rarely point to the actual problem. (Believe it or not, things have actually improved since early days!)

I find copying the equation side of the solve block and checking the units helps. Also, by copy/pasting somewhere outside the solve block you should find the undefined variables.
once I thought Umlaute is the problem, then all Variables and Functions have to be included in the solvefunction, but neither helps- attached the proof that it works with the vector asignement...
It's difficult to tell from your pdf but sollve blocks require one given (Vorgabe) and one Find (Suchen), a second find without a second given doesn't work.
Attached is a mathcad file and two pdf's pf that file, one with a solve block function and one as a single block.
I was now trying the same thing with ODE solve and think it works. The problem in my previous attempt was an integral which had been evaluated numerically for the standard solve block and failed when using a function to solve for different parameters, at least that is my impression. Mathcad evaluates the parameters diferently.
A Given/Odesolve (Vorgabe/Gdglosen) block will return a function, your T_R is a function of y for the values of I,alpha, and t that you had in the DGL_T() finction that defined T_R(y). You can now have the solutions of different cases by adding different values:
T_R2 := DGL_T(I2,a2,t2) where T_R2 is actually a function T_R2(y)
