How Dryer Works?
Your Dryer has a heating element that heats up to get the clothes dry. When you press the start button, your Dryer sends a message to the control board to start the Dryer, the control sends a message to the motor to spin, and the motor is transfers power to the heating element.
Most of the Dryers are electric Dryers, and need 240 Volts in order to run properly, that power is strong enough to light up the heating element. All the power goes to the control on the Dryer, and the control of the Dryer splits the power to the rest of the machine.
In order to vibrate, the Dryer needs a motor, so the motor will get 120 Volts out of the 240 Volts. The other 120V goes to the heating element, but not before it goes through protective components, such as thermistor (AKA Temperature sensor), Cut-Off fuse and High Limit Thermostat, those components are there to protect your house from catching on fire. If there is any power failure, those parts will go first.
When your Dryer motor runs, it gets 120 Volts and transfers those 120 Volt to the heating element, with no protecting fuse or Thermistor. But, why is there no protective system between your Dryer motor and your heating element? Only because your Dryer heats up to just 240V volts, and whatever happens, it will not dry up if your system fails between the control and the heating element.
As we mentioned, the Dryer needs heat, but that is not enough, your Dryer also needs air circulation, the simple reason for that is if your Dryer will keep the hot air inside, the hot air will evaporate from the wet clothes, but as soon as the Dryer will stop, the moisture in the air will be liquid again and goes back to the clothes.
So what component pushes the hot air with the moisture out of the Dryer? The blower wheel attached to the motor. Whenever the motor runs, the blower wheel spins with it. The blower wheel has 2 jobs, it needs to suck the air from the heating element, through the Dryer drum full of clothes, though a lint screen, through a duct hose and out of the house. This is the simple act of the Dryer, but as simple as it is, Dryer has many common problems.
