Abstract (en)
[origin: US2020370815A1] A refrigerator includes an inner case defining a storage chamber; a cold-air duct for guiding air flowing in the storage chamber and forming a heat exchange space, together with the inner case; an evaporator positioned in the heat exchange space; a bypass passage disposed at the cold-air duct and allowing air to flow while bypassing the evaporator; a sensor disposed in the bypass passage and having an output value which changes according to the flow rate of the air flowing through the bypass passage; a defroster for removing frost generated on a surface of the evaporator; and a controller for controlling the defroster on the basis of the value output by the sensor.
