Clothes drying is the process of removing moisture from wet laundry after washing. This can be done using various methods, including using a clothes dryer, hanging clothes on a clothesline, or laying them flat on a drying rack. Each method has its advantages, such as energy efficiency or preserving fabric quality. The drying time depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and airflow. In sunny and windy conditions, hanging clothes outside can be quick and effective. Conversely, using a clothes dryer can speed up the process, especially in colder or damp weather, but it consumes electricity.
