Abstract:
A control method of a laundry treatment apparatus is disclosed which includes a course setting procedure receiving a control command including RPM control data of an impeller, RPM control data of a compressor or opening degree control data of an expansion valve, a hot air supply procedure for supplying heated air to a drum through control of the impeller, compressor and expansion valve, a temperature measurement procedure measuring temperature of air introduced into the drum during execution of the hot air supply procedure, a first control procedure for controlling the impeller, compressor and expansion valve based on the control command when the measured temperature is equal to or higher than a reference temperature, and a second control procedure controlling the impeller, compressor and expansion valve based on a control command different from the control command set in the course setting procedure when the measured temperature is lower than the reference temperature.

Claim (Index 4):
The control method according to  claim 3 , wherein the second control procedure includes:\n a primary dryness measurement operation for determining a first dryness of the laundry; an operation for setting a reference time based on a time taken until the determined first dryness reaches a predetermined first reference dryness when the determined first dryness is equal to or higher than the predetermined first reference dryness; a secondary dryness measurement operation for determining a second dryness of the laundry before the reference time elapses; and an operation for completing operation of the compressor when the determined second dryness before the reference time elapses is equal to or higher than a predetermined second reference dryness.
