Best Answer

it depends on the type and model of dryer and also what type of motor is used

for induction motor you can calculate the RPM

A squirrel cage induction motor is a constant speed device. It cannot operate for any length of time at speeds below those shown on the nameplate without danger of burning out.

To Calculate the speed of a induction motor, apply this formula:

Srpm = 120 x F

P

Srpm = synchronous revolutions per minute.

120 = constant

F = supply frequency (in cycles/sec)

P = number of motor winding poles

Example: What is the synchronous of a motor having 4 poles connected to a 60 hz power supply?

Srpm = 120 x F

P

Srpm = 120 x 60

4

Srpm = 7200

4

Srpm = 1800 rpm

How does a spin dryer work?

When wet clothes are placed inside a spin dryer and it is switched on, the drum in which the clothes are placed rotates very fast. This makes the water go out of the clothes due to a force called centrifugal force. For scientific details about the centrifugal force go to http://www.thekeyboard.org.uk/What%20is%20centrifugal%20force.htm For more about the spin fryers and their usage: http://ezinearticles.com/?Using-a-Spin-Dryer&id=2136827 http://www.alternativeconsumer.com/2008/04/25/spin-dryer-saves-energy/
