Can you give more info about the problem? Is this a gas or electric dryer?
First of all it's a good idea to disconnect the power at the outlet, then remove the air exhaust hose and check it for blockages.
If the hose is not blocked, check if there is power at the outlet. If no indicator light shows there is power coming to the appliance, has the circuit breaker tripped in the main electricity service panel?
If the breaker is tripped (or a fuse has blown) it may be a fluke or it may indicate a larger problem. Turn the breaker back on (and/or replace the fuse with one exactly the same size and amperage rating) and see what happens.
If it's notpower to the outlet, you may need to crack that sucker open. (Remember to unplug it first) The easiest and most important thing to do after taking the cover off is to clean it. Chances are it is going to be full of lint. Get all the lint, dirt, and grime out of it.
Next do some simple tests:
If you didn't find anything from the above steps, you will need to start tracing wires with a meter. The procedure for that is model dependent and beyond the scope of this FAQ. Best of luck.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB
SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY
REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
First, check the breaker or fuse, make sure both are good. If still no heat either the sensor disc has opened or the heater element is faulty - check both with a meter. If you know little about appliances, this is the time to call a pro.
It is impossible to answer this very general question W/O more information because there are as many answers as there are parts in the dryer to fail!

The coefficient of drying is a number about the utility of a dryer. A simple example : You have dirty clothes dry, and you wash them. So now, you have a totally of 4kg wet clothes and you put them on the dryer. The coefficient of drying K come from this formula : K = Weight of wet clothes / Weight of dry clothes So it depends from the speed of your dryer!
In the early 1800s, prototype clothes dryers were first starting to be invented in England and France. One common kind of early clothes dryer was the ventilator, made by a Frenchman named Pochon. It was a barrel-shaped metal drum with holes in it that was turned by hand over a fire. One early American patent for a clothes dryer was granted to George T. Sampson on June 7, 1892. Sampson's dryer used the heat from a stove to dry clothes and was another type of ventilator machine.
Normally a thermal fuse has nothing to do with the dryers ability to run only to heat...
It depends on what sort of dryer, clothes? hair? something industrial?
Put them in the dryer on high. By the way, you spelled "shrink" wrong. :)
Electricity.

220 volts. In the US.
In North America, the standard is 240V, 60Hz.
Firstly, verify that the dryer is still getting hot. Are the clothes coming out hot and wet, or cold and wet? If they are coming out hot and wet, throughly clean your lint trap, and verify that your dryer vent hose is not kinked, crushed, or obstructed in any way. If they are coming out cold and wet, consult a repairman to service your dryer's heating element.
