Tóm tắt	The Vapor Compression Cycle is the fundamental thermodynamic cycle for refrigeration systems and heat pumps. It describes how mechanical work is used to transfer heat from a cold space (evaporator) to a warm space (condenser), operating against the natural temperature gradient. The cycle consists of four processes: isentropic compression, isobaric condensation, isenthalpic throttling, and isobaric evaporation.	The Brayton Cycle (also called Joule Cycle) describes the thermodynamic process in gas turbines and jet engines. It consists of four processes: isentropic compression in a compressor, isobaric combustion (heat addition), isentropic expansion in a turbine, and isobaric heat rejection. The Brayton Cycle is the foundation for analyzing aircraft propulsion, ground-based power generation, and simple-cycle gas turbine plants.
