REFRIGERATOR

Disclosed herein is a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a body, a storage compartment disposed inside the body, an evaporator configured to generate cold air and disposed behind the storage compartment, and a duct configured to supply the cold air generated by the evaporator to the storage compartment. The duct includes a first discharge hole through which air flowing in the duct is discharged, a plurality of second discharge holes through which air is discharged at a speed lower than a speed of the air discharged through the first discharge hole, and a damper configured to selectively regulate a flow of air to guide the air in the duct to the first discharge hole or the plurality of second discharge holes.

Wall covering assembly with ventilated portion and air curtain system

A refrigerator includes a liner and a wall covering assembly to create a false wall within a refrigerator cabinet. The wall covering assembly includes a top wall spaced-apart from a top wall of the liner, and a rear wall spaced-apart from a rear wall of the liner. The rear wall of the wall covering assembly includes a ventilated portion for providing outwardly directed air to the refrigerator cabinet. A duct assembly is disposed between the wall covering assembly and the liner and is configured to deliver air through the ventilated portion of the wall covering assembly and also deliver air in the form of a downwardly directed air curtain at the front portion of the refrigerator cabinet. The air curtain disrupts the outward flow of air from the ventilated portion of the wall covering assembly at the front portion of the refrigerator cabinet.
