A combined thermal and flow analysis was carried out to study the behavior and performance of a small, commercial LTD (Low-Temperature-Differential) heat engine. Laminar-flow solutions for annulus and channel flows were employed to estimate the viscous drags on the piston and the displacer and the pressure difference across the displacer. Temperature correction factors were introduced to account for the departure from the ideal heat transfer processes. The analysis results indicate that the work required to overcome the viscous drags on engine moving parts and to move the displacer is much smaller than the moving-boundary work produced by the power piston for temperature differentials in the neighborhood of $20^{\circ}C$ and engine speeds below 10 RPS. A comparison with experimental data reveals large degradations from the ideal heat transfer processes. Thus, heat-transfer devices inside the displacer cylinder are recommended.

The low temperature distribution of the refrigerated and frozen food has been increased gradually. Refrigeration industry is using R134a refrigerant, which GWP is 1300. R1234yf is an alternative refrigerant of R134a because GWP of R1234yf refrigerant is just 4. Evaporator used in refrigeration truck refrigeration system is operated on low temperature condition. Accordingly, evaporator is formed frost and the formation of frost is rapidly decreased performance of evaporator. In this study, the performance of evaporator using R134a and R1234yf refrigerant was analyzed with operating conditions under frost condition. As a result, the performance of R134a evaporator according to air inlet temperature, relative humidity and evaporating temperature was more sensitive than R1234yf evaporator. Besides, the frost growth of R134a evaporator is steeper than that of R1234yf one.

LNG Vaporizers must be smaller, more efficient, and easier to operate and maintain. Recently, the vaporizers with greatly enhanced performance as compared to conventional type, have been developed to fulfill these requirements. The vaporizing characteristic of LNG vaporizer with air as heat source has fixed ice. These characteristic has efficient down and total plant cost and installing space can be increase. On that reasons must be optimize through tube and pipes analysis and experiments with enhanced type in this study. In this study performance to the workong characteristics for air heating type vaporizer for super low temperature liquefied gas.

Apart from the deposition of alignment layer, alignment process needs to be involved for alignment of liquid crystal (LC) molecules. To simplify manufacturing process, several method were used such as rubbing, ion-beam irradiation, UV irradiation, and lithography. But, eventually it needs another treatment for LC alignment. Here, we suggested Si induced polyimide (PI) alignment layer at low temperature. Using this method, we are able to eliminate the alignment process and found that the alignment and electro-optic performance are much better than that of the rubbed PI LC cells. Compared to the rubbed PI cells, the response time was decreased by 70% and C-V characteristics have hysteresis-free.

Dynamic behavior of Libr-water absorption system using low-temperature hot water was investigated numerically. Thermal-hydraulic model of single-effect/double-lift 100 RT chiller was developed by applying transient conservation equations of total mass, Libr mass, energy and momentum to each component. Transient variations of system properties and transport variables were analysed during start-up operation. Numerical analysis were performed to quantify the effects of bulk concentration and part-load operation on the system performance in terms of cooling capacity, coefficient of performance, and time constant of system. For an absorption chiller considered in the present study, optimum bulk concentration was found to exist, which resulted in the minimum time constant with stable cooling capacity. COP and time constant increased as the load decreased down to 40%, below which the time constant increased abruptly and COP decreased as the load decreased further.

In this study, the objective of this study was to evaluate the adhesive characteristics of existing self-adhesive rubber asphalt sheet, butyl sheet and acrylate sheet in a low temperature environment through Tack Rolling Ball Test to obtain basic data on acrylate. As a result of this experiment, in the case of the self-molding rubber asphalt sheet and the butyl rubber sheet, the compound of the sheet was frozen in the low temperature environment and the iron bead was separated. On the other hand, the acrylate sheet did not freeze the acrylate even at 0 ℃, It is confirmed that the measured value is shown by Ball Test.

Field-effect transistors based on solution-processed metal oxide semiconductors has attracted huge attention due to their intrinsic characteristics of optical and electrical characteristics with benefits of simple and low-cost process. Especially, spray-pyrolysis has shown excellent device performance which compatible to vacuum-processed Field-effect transistors. However, the high annealing temperature for crystallization of MOS and narrow range of precursors has impeded the progress of the technology. Here, we demonstrated the nc-ZnO/ZnO films performed by spray-pyrolysis with incorporating ZnO nanoparticles into typical ZnO precursor. The films exhibit preserving morphological properties of poly-crystalline ZnO and enhanced electrical characteristics with potential for low-temperature processability. The influence of nanoparticles within the film was also researched for realizing ZnO films providing good quality of performance.

The development of fabrication processes of polycrystalline-silicon-thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) at low temperatures is reviewed. Rapid crystallization through laser-induced melt-regrowth has an advantage of formation of crystalline silicon films at a low thermal budget. Solid phase crystallization techniques have also been improved for low temperature processing. Passivation of $SiO_2$/Si interface and grain boundaries is important to achieve high carrier transport properties. Oxygen plasma and $H_2O$ vapor heat treatments are proposed for effective reduction of the density of defect states. TFTs with high performance is reported.
