Which operational constraint most severely limits isothermal gas engine efficiency?

💡 Explanation

Insufficient cooling limits isothermal expansion because heat must be removed to maintain constant temperature; therefore, efficiency suffers, rather than the other factors which influence performance but not as fundamentally for near-isothermal compression.
