  • the condensing duct 9 has a water supply device 9 a mounted thereon for supplying cooling water to condense, and remove moisture from air.
  • the drum type washing machine performs a washing cycle, a rinsing cycle, a spinning cycle, and a drying cycle.
  • the hot air is guided by the drying duct 7 , hits a sloped portion of the door glass 2 a , and, therefrom, is introduced into an inside of the drum 4 .
  • the hot air heats laundry and vaporizes moisture from the laundry.
  • the drum 4 rotates slowly, to turn the laundry upside down, so that the laundry is exposed to the hot air uniformly, to help vaporization of the moisture.
  • the moisture vaporized thus is discharged through the condensing duct 9 carried by the air.
  • the moisture is removed from the air.
  • the air having the moisture removed therefrom thus is introduced into the drying duct 7 again, and turned into hot air by the heater 7 b and the fan 7 a , and introduced into the drum 4 again, for performing drying of the laundry.
