The atmospheric pressure that exists at mean (average) sea level. Sea-level pressure can be measured directly, by stations located at sea level, or determined from charts showing the station pressure and temperature taken at stations not at sea level.
Sea-level pressure is used as a common reference for analysis of surface pressure patterns.

The average pressure existing inside the cylinder of a reciprocating engine during its power stroke. IMEP, expressed in pounds per square inch, is a measured pressure which contrasts with brake mean effective pressure, BMEP, which is a computed pressure. The horsepower found when IMEP is used in the horsepower formula is indicated horsepower, IHP.
