A refrigerated merchandiser including a case having a first case section. The first and second case sections define first and second product display areas. The first case section further defines an air passageway and the second case section includes a glass panel. The air passageway supports a fan and is in fluid communication with a first airflow inlet and a second airflow outlet. An airflow flows through the first airflow outlet toward the evaporator and a second airflow outlet in communication with the first airflow inlet via an evaporator bypass channel. A first airflow portion flows through the first airflow outlet and is cooled by the evaporator, and a second airflow portion flows through the second airflow outlet to bypass the evaporator and is uncooled by the evaporator. The second airflow outlet directs the second airflow portion over an exterior of the glass panel of the second case section.

A refrigerator includes a plurality of storage compartments and an evaporator configured to generate cold air through heat exchange. A duct includes a plurality of channels to carry cold air to the plurality of storage compartments and a fan is configured to supply cold air generated by the evaporator to the plurality of channels. A cold-air adjuster includes a plurality of open or close members provided in the plurality of channels, to adjust the volume of cold air flowing into the plurality of storage compartments. An actuator is configured to interlock operation of one of the plurality of open or close members with operation of another of the open or close members.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator and, in particular, to a refrigerator comprising: a main body comprising an outer case and an inner case which is provided inside the outer case so as to provide an ice making compartment and a refrigerator compartment at the top thereof and provide a freezer compartment at the bottom thereof; an evaporator case which has a cold air discharge port and a cold air suction port in communication with the ice making compartment, and which is provided between the outer case and the inner case; an evaporator installed in the evaporator case so as to supply cold air to the ice making compartment; and a driving unit fan duct assembly installed behind the ice making compartment. The driving unit fan assembly is characterized in that a driving unit assembly, a fan assembly, and a cold air discharge duct are modularized. The driving unit assembly, the fan assembly, and the cold air discharge duct are modularized and provided as one assembly, and thus can be installed in the ice making compartment through a single installation process. In addition; when the fan assembly is installed in a fan accommodation unit, the driving unit assembly and the cold air discharge duct are installed while being disposed at set positions at which the driving unit assembly and the cold air discharge duct are naturally inclined to be installed.

Disclosed is a refrigerator having a centrifugal fan with a volute, which includes a cabinet, an evaporator, a centrifugal fan, and an air supply duct. A cooling chamber located at a lower part and at least one storage compartment located above the cooling chamber are defined in the cabinet; the evaporator is disposed in the cooling chamber and is configured to cool airflow entering the cooling chamber to form cooled airflow; the centrifugal fan includes a volute and an impeller disposed in the volute; and the air supply duct is detachably connected with the volute, communicates with a volute air outlet, and is configured to deliver the cooled airflow into the at least one storage compartment. In the refrigerator of the present invention, the cooling chamber is located at a lower part of the cabinet, so that the cooling chamber occupies a lower space in the cabinet; the storage compartment is located above the cooling chamber, a compressor chamber may be defined behind the cooling chamber, and the storage compartment no longer needs to make room for the compressor chamber, thus guaranteeing the storage volume of the storage compartment. In addition, the air supply duct and the centrifugal fan adopt a split design, which implements modularization, is convenient for disassembly, assembly and transportation, and improves the yield rate.

The method for controlling the refrigerator includes operating a first cooling cycle for cooling the first storage compartment to operate the compressor and operating a first fan for the first storage compartment, and switching the first cooling cycle to a second cooling cycle for cooling the second storage compartment to operate the compressor and operating a second fan when a stop condition of the first cooling cycle is satisfied. A temperature of each storage compartment is sensed at sampling time intervals in each cooling cycle. Further, a cooling power of the compressor is determined for each sampling time based on a sensed current temperature of the storage compartment, and the compressor is operated at the determined cooling power.
