According to some embodiments disclosed in the present application, a climate controlled seat assembly includes a thermal module. The thermal module includes at least one inlet channel, at least one outlet channel, and a thermoelectric device, such as a Peltier circuit, upstream of the outlet channel. In one embodiment, the seat assembly includes a sensor positioned inside the thermal module and configured to detect the presence of a liquid, condensate, or other fluid, such as water, on or near the sensor. In some structures, the sensor is configured to detect the presence of a liquid by measuring a resistance or capacitance on a portion of the sensor. The climate control system may include an isolation liner located within the housing of the fluid module and at least partially between the cold channel and the hot channel. In some embodiments, the release liner includes one or more wicking materials. The isolation liner may be configured to transfer liquid from the cold channel to the hot channel.

    根据在本申请中公开的一些实施方式,气候受控座椅组件包括热模块。热模块包括至少一个进口通道、至少一个出口通道和位于出口通道上游的热电装置(如珀耳帖电路)。在一种实施方式中,座椅组件包括传感器,其定位在热模块内部,并构造为检测传感器上或附近的诸如水的液体、凝结物或其它流体的存在。在一些结构中,传感器构造为通过测量传感器的一部分上的电阻或电容来检测液体的存在。气候控制系统可以包括隔离衬垫,其位于流体模块的壳体内,且至少部分地位于冷通道和热通道之间。在一些实施方式中,隔离衬垫包括一种或多种芯吸材料。隔离衬垫可以构造为从冷通道向热通道传输液体。
