The nice things about steam is you can get as much water as could want on earth, but something like ammonia which we used as a refrigerant for years would probably work well too and there’s planets with ammonia rich atmospheres.
The interesting thing is the cycles are fairly similar at a high level, you just run out in one direction for power and the opposite direction for cooling.
That’s how you know you’ve got a leak. The reason they stopped using ammonia in the first refrigerators was because of they had a leak it would kill the entire household.
