The invention discloses a dish washing
machine and a control method thereof. The dish washing
machine comprises a body, an inner container arranged in the body, a
drying fan arranged in the body, a first detection unit used for detecting the environment temperature outside the inner container, a second detection unit for detecting the temperature and
humidity of space of the inner container, and a
control unit used for calculating the
dew point temperature of the space of the inner container according to the temperature and
humidity of the space of the inner container and controlling the
drying fan according to the
dew point temperature and the environment temperature outside the inner container when the dish washing
machine gets into a dish
drying storage stage. Thus, after washing is completed, the drying fan is controlled according to the environment temperature outside the inner container and the
dew point temperature of the space of the inner container to carry out drying storage on dishes. The problem of re-
contamination caused by the fact that the dishes are not taken out in time is effectively solved, and meanwhile the whole washing time of the dishes can be effectively shortened.
