Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3450886A1] Cooling device (2) for cooling a storage space (13) of a cooling container (1), wherein the cooling device (2) comprises at least: - a coolant space (3) for receiving a coolant, which is confined at least partly by housing walls (4) of the cooling device (2), the housing walls (4) comprising at least two zones (6, 7, 8): ˆ˜ a thermal isolation zone (7) having a first heat transfer coefficient; and ˆ˜ a main heat transfer zone (6) having a second heat transfer coefficient being larger than the first heat transfer coefficient, and - an eutectic material (5) provided within a part of the coolant space (3). The storage space 13 of the cooling container 1 can be cooled by the cooling device 2 particularly energy efficiently and over a particularly long period of time. With heat transfer being suppressed in the thermal isolation zone 7 and with the eutectic material 5, the cooling device 2 can provide a cooling with a cooling power that drops particularly slowly over time.
