1. Field
This relates to a dryer, and more particularly, to a dryer having enhanced dehumidifying power.
2. Background
In a laundry treating apparatus having a drying function such as a washer or dryer, once washing and dehydration are completed, hot air may be supplied into the drum to evaporate moisture from the laundry, thereby drying the laundry. Such a dryer may include a drum rotatably provided within a cabinet, a drive motor to drive the drum, a blower fan to blow air into the drum, and a heating device to heat air conveyed into the drum. The heating device may use, for example, high-temperature electric resistance heat generated using electric resistance, or combustion heat generated by combusting gas.
