Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a seat ventilation system for deployment in a seat of a vehicle. Specifically, the seat ventilation system includes a three-dimensional mesh for maintenance of airflow channels and a ductless blower system to prevent system pressure loss. The air-permeable three-dimensional scaffold prevents compression and closure of pad-based airflow channels. The blower system reduces system air pressure loss by residing adjacent to the volume of interest, eliminating the need for ductwork.
