Can an American 240V dual phase dryer be converted to work in Korea with 240V single phase power?
you could possibly design a fix for it but it would be a lot of trouble. the American dryer has internal components that run off 110v and that 110v is available from the three wire 220v circuit in the typical usa residence. this is because of the third wire, the neutral. the Korean 220 would be 2 wire. you would have to go inside the dryer, add a 220/110 transformer and rewire the dryer so that the 110v loads come off that transformer. it would then no longer be ul listed and would have to be evaluated by the authority having jurisdiction in Korea and back here in the usa.

Is there a way to vent a drier inside safely?
There are a couple ways to vent a dryer, my personal favorite is the dryer vent vacuum. They also have dryer vent hoods, and kits available for installation that will increase the effectiveness of your dryer.

Is there an adapter for a gas dryer to electric?
No, a gas dryer uses gas, which cannot be converted into electricity with a simple adapter.
Where does the water go in the dryer?
The water is converted to water vapor and is carried out through the dryer vent by the air that flows through the machine.
What kind of energy is used in a hair dryer?
Electrical energy is converted into thermal and mechanical energy
What kind of energy does a hair dryer use?
Electrical energy enters the hair dryer and is converted into kinrtic energy as a smallelectric motor spins a fan blade. Electrical enrgy is also converted into thermal energy in a grid of wires that heat up. The fan forces air across the hot wires , and hot air blows out of the nozzle of the hair dryer. You can hear the sound energy that comes out. In other words in is converted from Electrical energy -to- Kinetic energy and, Electrical energy -to- Thermal energy and, last but not least, Sound energy!
What energy transformation occur in a cloth dryer?
In a cloth dryer, electrical energy is converted into heat energy to dry the clothes. The heating element in the dryer converts the electricity into thermal energy, which evaporates the water in the clothes, resulting in dry clothing.
Before the introduction of the hair dryer in 1920 what common household appliance was promoted for its hair-drying ability?
The vacuum cleaner--which could be converted into a hair dryer by attaching a hose to the exhaust.
When a hair dryer is being used one of the energy transformations that takes place is?
Mechanical energy from the fan motor is converted into thermal energy (heat) by the heating element in the hair dryer.
What energy transfer occurs in a hair dryer?
In a hair dryer, electrical energy is converted into thermal energy (heat) by a heating element. The fan inside the hair dryer then transfers this thermal energy to the air, which then blows out heat to dry and style the hair.
Where does the water in the dryer go?
The water is converted to water vapor and is carried out through the dryer vent by the air that flows through the machine.
What is the energy transformation of a clothes dryer?
Electrical energy is converted to heat in the heating element. It is also converted to magnetic energy in the motor, which is converted into mechanical energy (and turns the drum). If it is a gas dryer, chemical energy is turned to heat at the burner.

How electrical energy is transformed in a clothes dryer?
Electrical energy powers the heating element in a clothes dryer, which generates heat that is used to dry the clothes. The motor in the dryer is also powered by electricity to rotate the drum, aiding in the drying process. Overall, electrical energy is converted into heat and mechanical energy to dry the clothes in a dryer.
