Best Answer

As the clothes dry, water is evaporated. This evaporation lowers the temperature of the air flowing out the dryer vent. Once most of the water is evaporated, the cooling effect is gone, and the temperature of the vent air rises. The dryer has a temperature sensor in the vent outlet that senses the temperature rise and shuts off a few minutes later. I wondered this myself after I got a new dryer with the auto dry feature and so researched the subject a few months ago. Inquiring minds want to know!
