초록 Compressed air can be used as an energy source for brake systems in medium-heavy and heavy-duty
commercial vehicles. The moisture in compressed air, which is due to high temperature and humidity, can be eliminated by
using an air dryer. In this paper, drying performance data for a cartridge were obtained and used to develop a drying
performance program, to predict the moisture and relative humidity in the air tanks of vehicles. The on-load time, off-load
time, air flow, duty cycle, humidity and dew point temperature were calculated according to air consumption. The validity of
the program was verified, and it was shown to be able to predict humidity changes in the air tank. The air tank capacity was
increased from 100 to 130 to reduce the duty cycle. Therefore, the regeneration rate decreased from 18% to 15%, but the
dew point depression temperature (ΔT) remained above 30oC. The duty cycle decreased from 50% to 43%, and the total
operation time and power consumption of the air compressor were reduced. In conclusion, fuel savings were obtained by
changing the parameters to optimize the system.
