Recently because of the progression of global warming and desertification, the tropical forests are decreasing rapidly. In order to maintain a sustainable civilization for future generations, humankind should carry out tree-planting in the tropical zones. The purpose of this present study is to propose an air conditioning system utilizing a Stirling cycle for the tropical desert use. The Stirling cycle air conditioner can operate in higher temperature area than the conventional air conditioner can operate in. The Stirling cycle presented here consists of pin-fin arrays' heat exchangers, a regenerator, a displacer piston, an expansion piston, a Scotch-yoke driving mechanism with a pair of counter rotating bevel gears and a power supply motor. The numerical simulation shows that the Stirling air conditioner can cool down an inside room to temperature of 298K with cooling capacity of 3kW even when the outside air temperature goes up to 333K. In conclusion, this research confirms that the Stirling cooler described here is suitable as an air conditioner appropriate to a high temperature region.
