Washing machine with drying function and method of controlling the same

摘要

Disclosed herein is a washing machine with drying function. A heater (90) is mounted in a tub (60) for heating wash water (W) or air (A) in the tub (60). A circulating channel (100) is connected to the tub (60) for guiding air heated by the heater (90) to the outside of the tub (60) and then supplying the air into a drum (70) such that the laundry in the drum (70) is dried. Consequently, the structure of the washing machine with drying function is simplified, the manufacturing costs of the washing machine with drying function are reduced, and noise generated from the washing machine with drying function is minimized.
