The Otto cycle is known as ideal cycle for spark-ignition cycle while the Diesel cycle is known as compression-ignition internal combustion engine. The Bryton cycle is known as ideal cycle for the modern-gas turbine engineand can be categorize as one of the gas power cycle. The Bryton cycle itself has four internal reversible processes. The next cycle is Stirling cycle. This Stirling cycle involves an isothermal heat-addition
