Abstract
A cooling system with a compression cooling cycle for a working fluid that passes an expendable fluid through a warm side heat exchanger for the cooling system to cause the expendable fluid to vaporize and thus absorb heat from the working fluid by way of latent heat or enthalpy of vaporization and then running the vaporized expendable through a turbine that drives a compressor for the cooling system.
