A method for controlling operation of a refrigerator having two evaporators is
provided which allows food to be effectively stored in refrigerating and freezing
chambers of the refrigerator. A Refrigerating-Freezing (RF) cycle and/or a Freezing
(F) cycle of the refrigerator and compressor operation are controlled based on
temperatures of various chambers within the refrigerator. This may be further enhanced
by also controlling operation of the evaporators and their respective evaporator
fans to further optimize cooling output and efficiency. In this manner, the various
refrigerating and freezing chambers of the refrigerator can be maintained at an
appropriate temperature, power consumption is minimized, and load on the compressor
can be adequately managed so as to provide for effective food storage.
