A device for temperature control in an aircraft cabin includes a first supply control arrangement and a first pressure control arrangement. The first supply control arrangement includes an air duct and a valve arrangement that controls a supply of heated air delivered to a first temperature area of the aircraft cabin such that a first specified temperature for the first temperature zone is achieved. When the valve arrangement fails, the first pressure control arrangement operates to control a pressure of heated air supplied into the first temperature area such that the first specified temperature for the first temperature zone is achieved.

1. A device for temperature control in an aircraft cabin including a first temperature area, the device comprising: a first supply control arrangement for controlling a supply of heated air from a first source of heated air into the first temperature area of the aircraft cabin, the first supply control arrangement including an air intake connected to the first source, an air outlet connected to the first temperature area, an air duct connected to the air intake and the air outlet, and a valve arrangement disposed at the air outlet, wherein the valve arrangement controls the supply of heated air into the first temperature area such that a specified first temperature for the first temperature area is achieved, anda first pressure control arrangement for controlling a pressure of heated air supplied from the first source into the first temperature area, the first pressure control arrangement controlling the pressure of heated air supplied into the first temperature area such that the specified first temperature for the first temperature area is achieved,wherein the first pressure control arrangement operates to control the pressure of heated air when the valve arrangement of the first supply control arrangement fails. 2. The device according to claim 1, wherein the aircraft cabin includes a second temperature area, and the valve arrangement of the first supply control arrangement controls the supply of heated air into the second temperature area such that a specified second temperature for the second temperature area is achieved, and wherein the first pressure control arrangement operates to control the pressure of heated air supplied into the second temperature area such that the specified second temperature for the second temperature area is achieved. 3. The device according to claim 2, wherein the air outlet comprises at least two air outlet ducts corresponding to respective temperature zones of the first and second temperature areas. 4. The device according to claim 3, wherein the valve arrangement comprises valves disposed in each of the air outlet ducts, the valves operative to control the supply of heated air in the air duct. 5. The device according to claim 1, further comprising: an operating status detecting arrangement connected to the first supply control arrangement for detecting a non-functional operating status of the valve arrangement. 6. The device according to claim 1, further comprising: a pressure detecting arrangement disposed in the air duct and configured to detect a current pressure in the air duct. 7. The device according to claim 1, wherein the supply control arrangement further comprises a shut-off arrangement operating to prevent airflow in an upstream direction from the first temperature area to the first pressure control arrangement. 8. A method for controlling temperature in an aircraft cabin including a first temperature area and an air duct, the method comprising: controlling a supply of heated air from a first source of heated air through the air duct and into the first temperature area of the aircraft cabin with a valve arrangement controlled such that a specified first temperature for the first temperature area is achieved, andcontrolling a pressure of heated air supplied from the first source into the first temperature area with a pressure control arrangement controlled such that the specified first temperature for the first temperature area is achieved when the valve arrangement fails. 9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the aircraft cabin includes a second temperature area, and the method further comprises: controlling a supply of heated air from the first source through the air duct and into the second temperature area of the aircraft cabin with the valve arrangement controlled such that a specified second temperature for the second temperature area is achieved, andcontrolling a pressure of heated air supplied from the first source into the second temperature area with a pressure control arrangement controlled such that the specified second temperature for the second temperature area is achieved when the valve arrangement fails. 10. The method according to claim 9, wherein the aircraft cabin includes a third temperature area, and the method further comprises: controlling a supply of heated air from a second source of heated air through the air duct and into the third temperature area of the aircraft cabin with the valve arrangement controlled such that a specified third temperature for the third temperature area is achieved, andcontrolling a pressure of heated air supplied from the second source into the third temperature area with a pressure control arrangement controlled such that the specified third temperature for the third temperature area is achieved when the valve arrangement fails. 11. The method according to claim 10, wherein the aircraft cabin includes a fourth temperature area, and the method further comprises: controlling a supply of heated air from the second source through the air duct and into the fourth temperature area of the aircraft cabin with the valve arrangement controlled such that a specified fourth temperature for the fourth temperature area is achieved, andcontrolling a pressure of heated air supplied from the second source into the fourth temperature area with a pressure control arrangement controlled such that the specified fourth temperature for the fourth temperature area is achieved when the valve arrangement fails. 12. The method according to claim 8, wherein the first temperature area further includes a plurality of temperature zones, and the air duct further includes a plurality of air outlet ducts configured to deliver the controlled supply of heated air into each of the plurality of temperature zones. 13. The method according to claim 8, further comprising: monitoring the valve arrangement to detect valve arrangement which fails. 14. The method according to claim 8, further comprising: detecting the pressure in the air duct. 15. The method according to claim 8, further comprising: replacing the supply of heated air from the first source with a supply of heated air from a second source when the first source fails, andreplacing the supply of heated air from the second source with the supply of air from the first source when the second source fails.
