A drum-type washer capable of easily cleaning a tub (110) and a method of cleaning the tub (110) of the drum-type washer are disclosed. The drum-type washer includes a tub (110) installed in a cabinet (101) to be supplied with washing water, a drum (106) rotatably disposed in the tub (110) such that laundry articles are loaded into the drum (106), a motor (104) which rotates the drum (106), a controller (160) which controls a rotational velocity of the motor (104) to rotate the drum (106) at a specified rotational velocity such that the washing water circulates along an inner peripheral surface of the tub (110) to clean the inner peripheral surface of the tub (110), and a steam supply device (120) which is controlled by the controller (160) to supply high-temperature, high-pressure steam into the tub (110) and the drum (106). |
