The mitral valve is the valve that separates the left atrium from the left ventricle. Vortex formation in the left ventricle is caused by the shear layer separation on the leaflets of the mitral valve. The vortex rings are one of the characteristic features in left ventricular flow.
The pulmonary valve is located in the right side of the heart, separating the right ventricle and the pulmonary vein.
The aortic valve is the valve that separates the left ventricle and the aorta. Aortic regurgitation is a disease that allows blood to flow back in the ventricle during the dilation phase. This results in a regurgitant jet that is
The pulmonary valve is located in the right side of the heart, separating the right ventricle and the pulmonary vein.
