Abstract: An air distribution system and method and an associated climate control device are provided for an aircraft in order to allow for more granular control of the temperature of the conditioned air distributed through the cabin of the aircraft. In one example, an air distribution system and method are configured to provide for individual temperature control within different zones of an aircraft, such as by associating a thermocouple device with a respective air distribution subsystem that delivers conditioned air to a respective zone. In another example, a climate control device is configured to allow individualized temperature control of the air discharged through a vent by associating a thermocouple device with the respective vent, thereby allowing for individual temperature control for a passenger onboard the aircraft.
