tumble drying
Heated barrel spinning
Tumble drying is the process of drying laundry in a machine that rotates clothes through heated air.
The tumbling action prevents items from clumping together and promotes even drying: Check the label—some fabrics shouldn't be tumble dried.
Clothes safe for this process are labeled "tumble dry."
