A reverse fridge. Or maybe a solar steam engine. Either way. this has to have been Baked already. |

//The system is placed in a hot climatic region, i.e. desert.// |

... which are presumably called 'deserts' because of the lack of water to be found there. |
|

Deserts are also not always hot. And even the ones that are hot are often only hot during the day, during the summer. Desert means dry, not hot. |

We already have a closed-loop stirling engine playing with hot day temperatures and cold night temperatures. It involves using a working fluid or gas and pumping it up and down. See link. |

Solar energy evaporates the water, but what condenses it? |
|
| |
The system is clearly not closed with regards to heat energy... if heat energy can enter it can also exit. |
|
| |
So at night for example the water will condense... only it will have moved --- hopefully in an upwards direction. |
|
| |
Note this is not a stirling engine. |
