Abstract
In this experiment, we try to see if we can vaccum dry clothes.

Background :
A previous experiment showed that a simple box plugged to a vaccum dryer can dry shoes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YqYux2N6rA). Let's see if it applies to clothes.

Tools :
Vaccum Dryer (1800 Watt)
Box 16L (30 x 40 x 21 cm)
Bowl of water (half full)
T-Shirt (cotton)

Results :
The t-shirt was as wet as it entered the box. The experiment didn't last very long (~3') but the vaccum started to smell heat and no sign of evaporation where showed. (overheating)

Improvement / Leads :

Try it longer (10')
Try it with more powerful vaccum
Make the box more watertight (airtight, sealed)
Try it in a real vaccum chamber
