There are no heating elements built in the bottom of many modern dishwashers like in the old days. Today's dishwashers superheat the wash water so that the remaining heat after the wash actually causes the dishes to dry. It isn't perfect, so I usually crack the door open a bit after the wash is done and allow some extra evaporation and cooling for a while before unloading. Just open the door and pull out the top rack a couple inches to prop the door open. I suppose this method of not using a heating element to dry things contributes to a lower electric bill. Any dishwasher manufacturer recommends unloading the lower rack first- this is to avoid spilling any moisture in upper rack items on the dry items in the lower rack (from overturned cups, etc.) .
