Abstract :Drying; It is a process applied to reduce the amount of water in a product or to reduce it to very low levels. The constantly changing conditions during the drying process make it difficult to determine the most suitable operating conditions to perform the drying process, such as drying time, energy consumption and product structural characteristics. In terms of a suitable drying, it is important to be able to control the factors affecting the drying depending on the characteristics of the product. Among these factors, the drying method and the pre-treatments that can be applied are also effective on drying. The high temperatures applied during drying and other conditions that are not chosen correctly can cause negative results in both the appearance of the product. The drying process in the textile industry is an expensive and laborious process that requires a lot of energy. The main purpose of the drying process is to provide maximum energy saving and energy efficiency at minimum time and cost without compromising the quality and structural properties of the material used. In this study, four fuzzy models were created depending on fabric fiber blend ratios and knitting structure in order to determine the effect on drying speed depending on time and temperature by using fuzzy logic method, which is one of the artificial intelligence methods.
