Abstract: An attempt has been made to construct a Mini Solar Pond in ordinary laboratory environment. Most of literature1,2 reports are based on natural lakes turned into solar pond to harness solar energy. This experiment was done with the aim of producing mobile, experimental and domestic solar pond. NaCl solution was used and temperature difference as high as 18°C within shallow depth of 28cm was attainable in ordinary darkened clay pot. Temperature gradient of 0.46 °C/cm was obtained.
