A method of using at least one of a cooling arrangement and a galley in an aircraft,

• the cooling arrangement comprising:
• a cooling energy consumer with a housing, which comprises a cooling fluid inlet opening for supplying a cooling fluid to the housing and a cooling fluid outlet opening for removing the cooling fluid from the housing;
• a cooling compartment with an interior for taking up the cooling energy consumer, which compartment has a cooling air inlet for supplying cooling air to the interior of the cooling compartment and a cooling air outlet for removing the cooling air from the interior of the cooling compartment, wherein the cooling air inlet is configured to conduct the cooling air supplied to the interior of the cooling compartment over an outer surface of the housing of the cooling energy consumer;
• and
• a conveying device configured to conduct the cooling air supplied to the interior of the cooling compartment and conducted over the outer surface of the housing of the cooling energy consumer through the housing of the cooling energy consumer via the cooling fluid inlet opening and the cooling fluid outlet opening;
• and
• the galley comprising the cooling arrangement.

A method for operating a cooling arrangement for a galley for installation in a transport apparatus, the method comprising:

• supplying cooling air to an interior of a cooling compartment of the cooling arrangement, in which compartment a cooling energy consumer is taken up, wherein the cooling air supplied to the interior of the cooling compartment is conducted over an outer skin of a housing of the cooling energy consumer;
• conducting the cooling air supplied to the interior of the cooling compartment and conducted via the outer skin of the housing of the cooling energy consumer through the housing of the cooling energy consumer by a conveying device;
• and
• removing the cooling air from the interior of the cooling compartment.
