There's not a lot of vapour pressure - the water would instantly boilJohnniG said:How come?
Yes, clothes can dry without any air movement, but it will take longer compared to when there is air movement. Air movement helps to carry away the moisture from the clothes, thus speeding up the drying process.
The time it takes for clothes to dry without any air movement depends on various factors such as the fabric type, humidity levels, and temperature. On average, it can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours for clothes to dry without any air movement.
Yes, clothes will dry faster if there is air movement. Air movement helps to evaporate the moisture from the clothes, making them dry faster. This is why hanging clothes outside on a windy day will result in faster drying compared to hanging them inside a room with no air movement.
The best way to dry clothes without air movement is to hang them in a well-ventilated area with low humidity levels. It is also helpful to choose a warm and sunny day for drying clothes without air movement, as the heat from the sun will help to evaporate the moisture from the clothes.
Yes, there are potential risks of drying clothes without air movement, such as the growth of mold and mildew on the clothes if they are not completely dried. It is important to make sure that the clothes are completely dry before storing them to avoid any potential risks.
