英文摘要	The present paper addresses an application of utilizing cooled tank water stored in a desert cooler. The desert cooler which is primarily used for air cooling can be utilized for mild refrigeration during summer months. Space inside a box attached in the cooler tank gets cooled due to heat transfer to tank water and can be utilized for refrigeration. A mathematical model of the proposed design has been developed and experimentally validated considering the cooling load of 5 W, 10 W and 15 W. It is seen that experimental values are in agreement with theoretical values, the values of correlation coefficient r is in between 0.91 and 0.99. Thermal performance of the proposed cooler has been computed for three different climatic conditions viz. hot and dry, composite and warm and humid climates in India. The results show that the cooler is performing reasonably well in a hot and dry and composite climate. The maximum degree of cooling of air and box is 7.6 degrees C and 13.9 degrees C respectively in the month of May for hot and dry climate of Jodhpur considering a cooling load of 5 W. The coefficient of performance (COP) is maximum between 174 and 112 for the climate of Jodhpur.
