Terracotta Evaporative Pots are used for storing fruits and vegetables that can be kept fresh for certain amount of days. These pots are called Zeer Pots, they are originated from Africa where people who live in the areas without electrical facilities. 
Zeer Pots use the principle of Evaporative Cooling to keep the food fresh inside the pot. Getting inspired by it, an experiment was performed to compare two zeer pots with different amount of water poured for evaporation process to occur. The experiment was performed to observe the results with respect to material, time interval, sand type and water quantity.
