Effects of Pressure Drops on the Performance Characteristics of Air Standard Otto Cycle

<table>Power output relative to its maximum value versus efficiency for polytropic expansion model. Both efficiency and power are reduced drastically as a function of the pressure coefficient (<svg height="10.9125" id="M111" style="vertical-align:-0.17555pt" version="1.1" viewbox="0 0 14.9 10.9125" width="14.9" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
