Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1990465A1] The dryer has an air duct (6) conveying flow of air in the direction of a blower (5), where the air duct is formed with a flow chamber (7) including curved sections. The flow chamber deflects the flow of air in the direction of the blower. A displacer (8) is arranged in the flow chamber in front of the blower for producing a non-rotational inflow onto a wheel of the blower and for reducing formation of vortices. The displacer is arranged on an axis of the wheel of the blower, and is presented as an integral component of a wall section (11) of the flow chamber.
