Sheet/duvet cover put in dryer on its own.
Tumble dryer is made by Miele so should be well designed. It's happed with previous machines as well (AEG, Creda).
You're right that if a sheet/duvet cover is dried in a commercial tumble dryer with a much bigger drum, the sheet can 'fall' through the air more easily, and therefore doesn't get tangled, but why, in a smaller drum does the 'balling' occur?
