The Brayton cycle is a thermodynamic cyclenamed after George Brayton who describes the workings of a constant-pressure heat engine. The original Brayton engines used a piston compressor and piston expander, but more modern gas turbine engines andairbreathing jet engines also follow the Brayton cycle. Although the cycle is usually run as an open system (and indeed must be run as such if internal combustion is used), it is conventionally assumed for the purposes ofthermodynamic analysis that the exhaust gases are reused in the intake, enabling analysis as a closed system.

The engine cycle is named after George Brayton (1830–1892), the American engineerwho developed it originally for use in piston engines, although it was originally proposed and patented by Englishman John Barber in 1791.[1] It is also sometimes known as the Joule cycle. Reversed Joule cycle used as external heat and incorporates the use of a regenerator. Two types of Brayton cycles are open to the atmosphere and using internalcombustion chamber or closed and using a heat exchanger.
