Abstract

Disclosed is a cooling device (1), in particular for a galley of an aeroplane, comprising a cooling compartment (2) formed by inner walls (12, 13, 14, 15) of the cooling device, holding at least one refrigerated goods container (20), in particular a trolley, and further comprising a cooling air feed device (3) for introducing cooled air into the cooling compartment and a hot air discharge device (4) for discharging heated air (98) from the cooling compartment, wherein a primary flow channel is configured in use with the at least one refrigerated goods container (20) in the cooling compartment (2) between the inner walls (12, 13, 14, 15) of the cooling device and outer walls (22, 23, 24, 25) of the at least one refrigerated goods container (20), to guide a cooling air flow along a primary flow direction, deflected a plurality of limes through the arrangement of inner walls, from the cooling air feed device (3) around the at least one refrigerated goods container (20) to the hot air discharge device (4). According to the invention, the cooling air feed device (3) is configured to introduce the cooled air as jets into the primary flow channel along the primary flow direction (x), and in the cooling compartment (2) a secondary flow channel (9) is configured to return, as a secondary flow (9A), a portion (9A) of the cooling air flow guided through the primary flow channel around the at least one refrigerated goods container (20) into the primary flow channel for the purpose of mixing the introduced cooled air and forming a circulation flow (97) around the at least one refrigerated goods container (20) along the primary flow direction (x).
