Abstract: A liquid desiccant air conditioning system (LDAC). The LDAC has a plurality of modules including at least an initial module and a terminal module that may include one or more intermediate modules. The liquid desiccant is passed through each module and contacts an airstream in each module and subsequently collected in a basin. The liquid desiccant is supplied to a common heat exchanger where thermal energy is exchanged between the liquid desiccant and a refrigerant. The liquid desiccant is supplied from the common heat exchanger to a desiccant distributor for each of the plurality of modules such that the concentration and temperature of the liquid desiccant is essentially the same at each desiccant distributor.
