Ejection of blood from the left ventricle to the aorta is studied using two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations, the work-energy equation and the magnetic resonance imaging of a normal ventricular motion. Vortex shedding in the sinuses of Valsalva is dominated by the aortic jet, flow acceleration an...
