Abstract:
1. A refrigerator comprising: a body; at least one storage chamber provided in the body and configured to store food; a cool air generating device provided in the body and configured to generate a flow of cool air; a cool air supplying device configured to circulate air between the at least one storage chamber and the cool air-generating device wherein the cool air supplying device includes a first opening that discharges cool air into the at least one storage chamber in a first direction, and a second opening that discharges cool air into the at least one storage chamber in a second direction; and a first separator provided adjacent to the first opening and a second separator provided adjacent to the second opening, each separator configured to separate a flow of cool air in the cool air supplying device into at least two flows such that the cool air discharged from the first opening and the second opening into the storage chamber comprises a turbulent flow that is uniformly distributed through the storage chamber, wherein the first and second openings are positioned such that the turbulent flow in the first direction is substantially perpendicular to the turbulent flow in the second direction, and wherein the turbulent flow in the first direction crosses the turbulent flow in the second direction inside the at least one storage chamber.
