REFRIGERATOR AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

A refrigerator includes a first storage chamber, a second storage chamber spatially-separated from the first storage chamber, a first refrigeration cycle system to cool the first storage chamber using a first refrigeration cycle, and a second refrigeration cycle system installed to be separated from the first refrigeration cycle system to cool the second storage chamber using a second refrigeration cycle in an independent manner from the first refrigeration cycle. The first and second storage chambers maintain first and second target temperatures, respectively. The first and second refrigeration cycle systems circulate different kinds of refrigerants to cool the first and second storage chambers, respectively.
