Heat exchanger array system and method for an air thermal conditioner

An air thermal conditioning system for at least one of heating air and cooling air, the air thermal conditioning system comprising:

• a cross-flow heat exchanger array that includes:
• a housing;
• a plurality of planar membrane heat exchangers held by the housing in parallel via respective opposing first and second ends of the planar membrane heat exchangers, the planar membrane heat exchangers disposed in parallel with a space separating each of the planar membrane heat exchangers, the space separating each of the planar membrane heat exchangers being an opening located centrally between the respective planar membrane heat exchangers that extends between the opposing top and bottom ends of the respective planar membrane heat exchangers and extends between opposing peripheral edges of the respective planar membrane heat exchangers, with each of the planar membrane heat exchangers comprising:
• a first sheet;
• a second sheet coupled to the first sheet;
• and
• at least one fluid chamber defined by the first and second sheets, with the at least one fluid chamber extending between the first and second ends and opening to a first and second port disposed at the first and second ends respectively;
• and
• a first and second fluid conduit respectively disposed at and communicating with the first and second ports of the planar membrane heat exchangers, the first and second fluid conduits fluidically coupling the plurality of planar membrane heat exchangers and configured generate a fluid flow within the fluid chambers of the plurality of planar membrane heat exchangers flowing in the first fluid conduit, between the first and second ends within the respective chambers, and out the second fluid conduit, with fluid flowing in and out of the first and second fluid conduits respectively on the same side of the cross-flow heat exchanger array.
