Best Answer

A clothes dryer usually has only one part that has any notable electromagnetic characteristics. (The electronic control circuit is not magnetic beyond the fact that it has wires that carry currents.) The part that employs magnetic fields in its operation is the electric motor.

Most electric motors do not have permanent magnets in them but have field and stator coils that induce the electromagnetic fields. Only small electric motors (usually battery operated) use magnets due to space constraints.
