Polytropic Work in Thermodynamics Formulas

Polytropic Work is the energy transferred to or from an object via the application of force along with a displacement for a system whose pressure and volume obey a certain thermodynamic relation. And is denoted by W_polytropic. Polytropic Work is usually measured using the Joule for Energy. Note that the value of Polytropic Work is always negative.
