The invention discloses an air-cooling refrigerator and a control method thereof. An independent
moisture control area is arranged in a
refrigeration chamber of the air-cooling refrigerator. Two independent
moisture control air path circulating systems are arranged in the
moisture control area. One of the independent moisture control air path circulating systems is a
refrigeration moisture control air path circulating
system, and the other independent moisture control air path circulating
system is a freezing moisture control air path circulating
system. The
refrigeration moisture control air path circulating system comprises a refrigeration moisture control air-supplying air
flue, a refrigeration moisture control air-returning air
flue, a refrigeration moisture control air-supplying
air door and a refrigeration moisture control air-returning
air door. The freezing moisture control air path circulating system comprises a freezing moisture control air-supplying air
flue, a freezing moisture control air-returning air flue, a freezing moisture control air-supplying
air door and a freezing moisture control air-returning air door. The air-cooling refrigerator and the control method thereof have the beneficial effects that switching between the two independent moisture control air path circulating systems is utilized, and different forms of combination and cooperation of the temperatures of all evaporators and the starting time of all the air
doors are combined, so that precise adjustment of
humidity in the moisture
control area is achieved; the
humidity adjustment range is wide; and the precise requirements of various types of food for the
humidity are met.
