Improvement in the arrangement used in a clothes drying apparatus to determine the drying time

摘要

Method for automatically controlling the drying cycle in a clothes drying machine until the desired dryness level is reached, said method being adapted to calculate and determine the required drying time by processing a plurality of initial temperatures (t1, t2 ...tn) of the air used to dry said clothes, as well as the corresponding times, starting from the beginning of the drying cycle, wherein said expected drying time is also calculated on the basis of a plurality of historical data out of previously run experiments, in which the different conditions of both the machine and the drying load are taken into account along with the corresponding drying result obtained. In a preferred manner, the temperature of said air in the drum is measured when the air is exhausted out of the drum into the atmosphere. <IMAGE>
