    A refrigerator and air conditioner are similar in that they both use a refrigeration cycle to cool an enclosed space. The refrigeration cycle involves compressing, condensing, and evaporating a refrigerant. Specifically, the cycle works as follows: 1) A compressor compresses the refrigerant, increasing its temperature and pressure. 2) The hot refrigerant then passes through a condenser, where it cools and condenses into a liquid. 3) The liquid refrigerant next flows through an expansion valve where it cools further and evaporates, absorbing heat from the enclosed space. 4) The cool vapor returns to the compressor to repeat the cycle, continuously cooling the refrigerator interior.
