HEAT GENERATION AND TRANSPORT IN THE HEART

Johannes H. G. M. van Beek

UDC 536.2

During contraction of the heart, a large part of the 
energy in energy metabolism is converted to heat. The 
article presents the results of measurements of 
mechanical stresses in the myocardium and blood vessels, 
temperatures and rate of heat generation. Experimental 
data correlate well with the numerical solutions of the 
biothermal problem.
