The water kept in an earthen pot seeps into the small pores in the pot and evaporates from the surface of the pot. The heat required for evaporation is taken from water inside the pot, thus cooling the water stored inside. This is the reason why on hot summer days water remains cool in earthen pot.

hope it helps

Explanation:

Water placed in earthen pots is evaporated from minuscule pores it has as it is made of mud particles. There are a large number of extremely small pores in an earthen pot through which the water kept inside the pot keeps on evaporating and takes the latent heat required for vaporization from the earthen pot and remaining water. The earthen pot and water hence loses heat and this makes the water inside the pot cool. This evaporation of water produces a cooling effect. Some of the heat energy that is generated is used in the process of evaporation. Hence, water stored in earthen pots tends to become cooler in summer.
