Abstract (en)
A control method for controlling a tumble laundry drier (1) for drying wool laundry (5); the control method includes the steps of: loading the wool laundry (5) into a drum (3) of the tumble laundry drier (1); feeding a stream of drying air into the drum (3); rotating the drum (3) at a first rotation speed (n 1 ) greater than a second rotation speed (n 2 ) at which centrifugal acceleration of the inner surface of the drum (3) equals gravitational acceleration, so the wool laundry (5) is pressed by centrifugal force against the inner surface of the drum (3), as opposed to dropping inside the drum (3); and cyclically stopping rotation of the drum (3) by zeroing the rotation speed (n) and then re-accelerating the drum (3) back to the first rotation speed (n 1 ) to rearrange the wool laundry (5) inside the drum (3).
