When a room temperature of a car begins to go up, the refrigerant is heated on the sitting side 14 of a seat 10, changing to gas-liquid two-phase flow, and starts to circulate toward the section installed on the opposite side 15, where the refrigerant radiates the heat, and then the circulation is continued. Thus, even if the temperature rises due to solar radiation, the inside of the car is kept constantly at an evaporation temperature of the refrigerant, which prevents the seat temperature is prevented from going up and a driver can sit comfortably on the seat.
