The air-cooled refrigerator utilizes the switch of the damper baffle to guide the cold air of the evaporator into different compartments, thereby controlling the refrigeration of the different compartments. However, the refrigerator has water vapor, and when excessive water vapor is condensed on the damper, the damper cannot be normally opened or closed. This requires opening the damper heater to evaporate ice that condenses on the damper surface, and the damper can operate properly.
A typical damper heater control method is to open the damper for a period of time while it is closed and defrosting, which may open the damper without ice, resulting in a loss of energy consumption. Or when the air door is abnormal, the air door cannot be opened in time, so that the air door cannot be restored in time after working abnormally. Therefore, a control method is needed, which can judge whether the damper works in real time and timely open the heater to remove the fault when the damper is in an abnormal state.
