Refrigerator and control method thereof

Abstract

The application discloses a refrigerator and a control method thereof, and relates to the technical field of refrigerators. The refrigerator comprises a cabinet assembly, an inner container, a compressor and a condenser. The cabinet assembly is wrapped on the outer side of the inner container, and the cabinet assembly forms a compressor chamber. The compressor and the condenser are arranged in the compressor chamber. A sandwich air cavity is arranged in the cabinet assembly and is communicated with the compressor chamber. When the refrigerator is running, the condenser in the compressor chamber continuously releases heat, and the air temperature in the compressor chamber is relatively high. Hot air can flow from the compressor chamber to the sandwich air cavity, so that the temperature of the surface of the cabinet assembly is increased, and thus the risk of condensation on the outer surface of the cabinet assembly can be avoided. The control method of the refrigerator comprises the following steps: starting the compressor to perform refrigeration; and starting an anti-condensation fan. By starting the anti-condensation fan, hot air in the compressor chamber can be blown into the sandwich air cavity, so that the temperature of the outer surface of the cabinet assembly is increased, and thus the risk of condensation on the surface of the cabinet assembly is reduced.
