Abstract

A device for temperature regulation of sections of the interior of an aircraft includes a controlled mixer valve for the mixing of engine bleed air and air that is cooler than the engine bleed air in order to obtain pre-tempered mixed air flowing out of the mixer valve; a distribution line connected to the outlet of the mixer valve which is connected to the respective sections by at least two supply lines; individual heating units assigned to the respective sections; sensors assigned to the individual sections for the respective actual temperatures; transmitters for the respective nominal temperatures; and a regulator unit which controls the mixer valve dependent upon the respective nominal temperatures and the respective actual temperatures in the individual areas.
