Thermal Analysis of Clay Pot in Pot Refrigerator

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 9

Abstract

Cooling through evaporation is an ancient effective method of lowering temperature. The simple clay pot refrigerator is ideally suited for preserving vegetarian food and water in hot and dry climates. The refrigeration takes place by evaporation through the porous pot material. The present work includes experimental analysis of a clay pot in pot by varying height of water in the inner pot, by varying water level in the annulus of two pots and by subjecting the pot in pot refrigerator for free and forced convection. Results obtained from experimental analysis shows that Temperature T1 is highest when inner pot is filled with 5.5litres of water and lowest when it is filled with 1.5 litres of water. Temperature T1 decreases by increasing water level in the annulus of two pots and rate of cooling is lowest when pot in pot refrigerator is subjected to free convection and highest when it is subjected to forced convection.
