Abstract (en)
[origin: US2021010738A1] A method for controlling a refrigerator includes operating, for a predetermined period of time, a heating element of a sensor disposed on a bypass passage which allows a portion of air to bypass an evaporator disposed in a heat-exchange space; sensing the temperature of the heating element in on or off state; and sensing the blockage of an air passage in the heat-exchange space on the basis of the difference in value of the temperature between a first sensed temperature, which is the lowest value, and a second sensed temperature, which is the highest value, from among the sensed temperatures of the heating element.
