It's also how fridges work.

Compression produces heat which is dissipated in the radiator, it then expands inside the pipes in the fridge and absorbs heat cooling the fridge interior.

 

I'd really like to see the words 'condense' and 'evaporate' in your description to be sure you understand that this relies on the working fluid going through phase changes

 

The key thing is the fluid going from gas to liquid (and back again in a fridge), which is where the big energy changes happen
