Disclosed herein is a multi-compartment type refrigerator and method for controlling the same. The refrigerator includes a plurality of storage compartments. A plurality of evaporators are each positioned in each of the storage compartments, respectively. A compressor supplies refrigerant to the evaporators through a branched refrigerant conduit. A plurality of opening/closing valves are each positioned on a refrigerant conduit upstream of each of the evaporators for selectively controlling supply of refrigerant to the evaporators. Reference compartment defining means defines as a reference storage compartment one of the storage compartments that has a relatively great load. Control means controls starting of the compressor depending on a change of a temperature of the reference storage compartment.

A method as in claim 1, further comprising a valve for controllably dividing said air staging valve air stream. 3. A method as in claim 1, wherein the step of controllably dividing said air staging valve air stream into at least one bypass flow stream, and at least one primary air stream is accomplished by controlling the air valve schedules through a predetermined schedule. 4. A method as in claim 1, wherein the temperature and composition of said product stream are selected to control simultaneously the amount of thermal NOxand prompt NOxformed in the main combustor. 5. A method as in claim 1, wherein said catalyst is selected from the group consisting of platinum, rhodium, iridium, ruthenium, palladium, chromium oxides, cobalt oxides, alumina and mixtures thereof. 6. A method as in claim 1, wherein said fuel is in liquid form. 7. A method as in claim 1, wherein said fuel is in gaseous form. 8. A method as in claim 1, further comprising the step of delivering said exit effluent gas stream to a turbine. 9. A method of combusting hydrocarbon fuel, comprising: compressing an air stream in a compressor; dividing the air stream into at least one air staging valve air stream and at least one secondary air stream; controllably dividing said air staging valve air stream into at least one bypass flow stream, and at least one primary air stream; introducing said bypass flow stream into a bypass manifold; introducing said primary air stream into a fuel preparation and mixing section, wherein fuel is injected and mixed to form a fuel/air mixture stream; introducing said fuel/air mixture stream into a catalyst section, wherein a catalyst is located and partially oxidizes the fuel by contacting the fuel/air mixture with an oxidation catalyst in a catalytic oxidation stage, thereby generating a heat of reaction and a partial oxidation product stream comprising partially oxidized hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and excess air; combusting the partial oxidation product stream, in a main combustor, at a condition at which appreciable quantities of thermal NOxare not formed, thereby generating an effluent gas stream; and combining said effluent gas stream with said bypass flow stream and secondary air streams to form an exit effluent gas stream, wherein the temperature and composition of the partial oxidation product stream are selected to control simultaneously the amounts of NOxformed in the main combustor and the stability of the flame in the main combustor, thereby controlling the total amount of NOxin the exit effluent gas stream. 10. A method as in claim 9, further comprising a valve for controllably dividing said air staging valve air stream. 11. A method as in claim 9, wherein the step of controllably dividing said air staging valve air stream into at least one bypass flow stream, and at least one primary air stream is accomplished by controlling the air valve schedules through a predetermined schedule. 12. A method as in claim 9, wherein the temperature and composition of the partial oxidation
