Abstract: A test cage and method for testing a gap formed between a wall and an insulation layer in a vehicle. The test cage includes first and second end walls and a sidewall to form an interior space. Openings extend through one or more of the first and second end walls and the sidewall. The openings are configured to allow air flow through the interior space. Two or more ports extend through the first end wall and are in communication with the interior space. Each of the ports comprises an inner end at the interior space with the inner ends spaced apart within the interior space and also spaced away from the second end wall. Hoses can be connected to the ports to provide for inputting a gas and/or testing the air within the gap.

Abstract: An air drying system including a compressor coupled to a first air inlet through which moist air is received, a first turbine in fluid communication with the compressor and coupled to a first air outlet through which dry air is expelled, and a second turbine coupled to a second air inlet and a second air outlet and being driven, at least in part, by an air flow caused by a pressure differential between the second air inlet and the second air outlet, where the second turbine is operably coupled to the compressor and the first turbine by a drive mechanism so that rotation of the second turbine drives rotation of the compressor and the first turbine.
