Abstract
A clothes drying cabinet is provided with an internal compartment for receiving clothes and having a plurality of air inlet nozzles. An air plenum provides air to the cabinet through the nozzles. The plenum has a decreasing cross section from one corner to an opposite corner to provide a balanced distribution of air through the nozzles at a substantially uniform velocity. The nozzles are angularly oriented to direct air across upper and lower surfaces of shelves mounted within the drying compartment.
