ABSTRACT:
A method and device for drying a paper web in a dryer section having a number of successive dryer groups with a single-wire draw, and being situated after a press section of the paper machine. Each dryer group includes contact-drying cylinders arranged in a first row and reversing suction cylinders or equivalent suction rolls arranged in a second row, the rows being horizontal, diagonal or vertical rows. The paper web is dried by contact-drying cylinders from the side of its lower face across the entire length of the dryer section. The paper web is passed as a closed draw from one dryer group to the next group, and the paper web is guided, while it runs on the drying wire at the side of the outside curve, by the reversing suction cylinders having a curve radius selected in a range from about 250 mm to about 1000 mm. The paper web is kept in constant contact with the drying wire as it is placed at the side of the outside curve, against the effect of centrifugal forces by a pressure difference which preferably extends over the entire inner circumference of the reversing suction cylinders. In addition to the above, or as an alternative, the paper web is dried from the side of its upper face on a draw or draws of the paper web that is/are free from the wire and/or a flow of drying air is applied to the upper face of the paper web through the drying wire and/or on the draws of the paper web that are free from the wire.
