The invention discloses a clothes drying method and equipment having a clothes drying function. The method is characterized by firstly, collecting the material information of clothes, and determininga clothes drying power setting value and a clothes drying time setting value according to the material information of the clothes; then, carrying out electromagnetic wave drying processing on the clothes, and adjusting the emission power of an electromagnetic wave to be equal to the clothes drying power setting value; and ending a drying process when clothes drying time reaches the clothes dryingtime setting value. By using the clothes drying method, the electromagnetic wave is used to dry the clothes, and according to the material information of clothes, the emission power and the clothes drying time of the electromagnetic wave are automatically adjusted so that a problem that clothes fibers are damaged due to an excessive drying temperature can be solved, the effective protection of theclothes are realized, drying time can be accurately controlled, drying efficiency is increased and energy wastes are avoided. The clothes drying method is applied in the equipment having the clothesdrying function so that the intelligent level of the equipment can be greatly increased and the usage experience of a consumer is improved.
