A shelf for a refrigerator is provided, the shelf comprising: a first surface for receiving items when the shelf is in use; the first surface being spaced apart from a second surface to form a duct between the first and second surfaces; wherein the duct allows fluid communication between an air inlet and an air outlet, the duct being flared to form the air inlet such that the cross sectional area of the air inlet is larger than that of the duct.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet having a first storage compartment and a second storage compartment, and a cooling module removably mounted to the cabinet. The cooling module includes an evaporator, a condenser, and a compressor. A first cold air duct extends from the first storage compartment and is configured to allow a portion of the cooling module in which the evaporator is arranged, to communicate with the first storage compartment when the cooling module is coupled to the cabinet, and a second cold air duct is different from the first cold air duct and extends from the second storage compartment. The second cold air duct is configured to allow the portion of the cooling module in which the evaporator is arranged, to communicate with the second storage compartment.

A refrigerator is proposed. The refrigerator includes a refrigerating compartment, a freezing compartment, and an ice-making compartment. The refrigerating compartment is configured to receive cool air from a refrigerating compartment side grill fan assembly, and the ice-making compartment is configured to be located in any one refrigerating compartment door and to receive cool air from a freezing compartment side grill fan assembly with the freezing compartment. The refrigerating compartment side grill fan assembly is configured to supply a greater amount of cool air to a space at a refrigerating compartment door without the ice-making compartment than the amount of cool air supplied to other spaces, and the freezing compartment side grill fan assembly is configured to supply a greater amount of cool air to a space communicating with a recovery duct for the ice-making compartment than the amount of cool air supplied to other spaces.
