Summary: | A method of controlling an air conditioner including a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an expansion valve and an indoor unit, includes detecting an indoor temperature and an outdoor temperature and checking an indoor load and an outdoor load when an operation command is input, determining an operation frequency of the compressor and a degree of opening of the expansion valve based on the checked indoor load and the outdoor load, driving the compressor at the determined operation frequency and opening the expansion valve to the determined degree of opening, thereby supplying a refrigerant to an indoor heat exchanger having a first cooling panel and a second cooling panel disposed parallel to each other, controlling a rate of rotation of each of the indoor fans based on the operation frequency of the compressor and the degree of opening of the expansion valve. |
