    Abstract: A refrigerator includes a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, switching valve, an ice-making device, a controller, and a first refrigerant pipe and a second refrigerant pipe connected between the condenser and the evaporator. The switching valve is configured to guide the refrigerant condensed in the condenser to the first refrigerant pipe or the second refrigerant pipe. The ice-making device allows the first refrigerant pipe to pass therethrough and configured to cool water stored in an ice-making tray. The controller is configured to control the switching valve to guide the refrigerant to the ice-making device through the first refrigerant pipe. In response to a temperature of the ice-making tray falling to a level lower than or equal to a reference temperature, the controller is configured to control the switching valve to prevent the refrigerant from being guided to the first refrigerant pipe and supply water to the ice-making tray.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a storage compartment, an evaporator configured to cool the air in the storage compartment, a first heater provided in the vicinity of the evaporator, a tray provided to accommodate water, a refrigerant pipe provided in contact with the tray and configured to cool the tray, a second heater provided in the vicinity of the refrigerant pipe, a compressor configured to supply a compressed refrigerant to at least one of the evaporator or the refrigerant pipe, and a processor configured to start an operation of the second heater after starting an operation of the first heater, and configured to start an operation of the compressor after stopping the operation of the first heater and the second heater. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent ice from being agglomerated caused by the defrosting operation.
