REFRIGERATOR AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

A method for controlling a refrigerator includes turning on a compressor to operate with a predetermined cooling power for cooling a storage compartment, turning off the compressor when a temperatureof the storage compartment reaches a temperature equal to or lower than a first reference temperature, and turning on the compressor again when the temperature of the storage compartment reaches a temperature equal to or higher than a second reference temperature higher than the first reference temperature. In the turning on the compressor again, the compressor is operated with a cooling power determined based on an on slope, which is a temperature change slope of the storage compartment during an on time of the compressor, and an off slope, which is a temperature change slope of the storage compartment during an off time of the compressor. 本发明的冰箱的控制方法包括：压缩机以预定冷功率工作，以冷却储藏室的步骤；当所述储藏室的温度达到第一参考温度以下的温度时，所述压缩机断开的步骤；以及，当所述储藏室的温度达到高于所述第一参考温度的第二参考温度以上的温度时，所述压缩机再次接通的步骤，在所述压缩机再次接通的步骤中，所述压缩机以基于接通斜率和断开斜率来确定的冷功率工作，所述接通斜率是所述压缩机
