Patent ID: 8439277

Claim:
An air conditioning system, the air conditioning system being capable of treating a conditioned space by treating outdoor air from outside the conditioned space and return air from inside the conditioned space, and mixing the outdoor air with the return air to form supply air for the conditioned space, the air conditioning system including: an outdoor air latent cooling treatment stage configured to provide parallel airflow with a return air sensible cooling treatment stage, and a means for mixing outdoor air with return air to form conditioned space supply air, wherein the outdoor air latent cooling treatment stage includes at least a dehumidification heat exchanger, combination pre-cooling and heat reclaim heat exchangers, and a heat transfer pump, and the return air sensible cooling treatment stage includes at least a sensible cooling heat exchanger, wherein the heat exchange medium for the sensible cooling heat exchanger is passed in series with the dehumidification heat exchanger.
