Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013174739A1] The invention relates to a method for operating a dryer 1 with a drying chamber 2 for articles to be dried, a drive motor 12, a control device 22 and a process air duct 3, in which a heater 4, a heat exchanger 5, a process air fan 6 and a latent heat accumulator 7 are situated, wherein (a) in a charging phase, the latent heat accumulator 7 is charged by way of the heat transfer of the humid process air from the drying chamber 2, whereas the process air fan 6 is operated in order to conduct the process air through the latent heat accumulator 7 at an air flow speed F1; and (b) after charging of the latent heat accumulator 7, the heater 4 is switched off or is operated at an output that is reduced in relation to step (a) in order to initiate a discharging phase; and (c) the process air fan 6 is operated in order to conduct the process air through the latent heat accumulator 7 at an air flow speed F2 which is greater than F1. Moreover, the invention relates to a dryer which is suitable for carrying out said method.
