The paper presents a mathematical model of the human cardiovascular system consisting of 34 compartments that represent arterial and venous subsystems of the systemic and pulmonary circulation, arterio-venous capillaries, right and left ventricles and atria of the heart. The model describes pulsating blood flows, changes in the pressures and volumes during a cardiac cycle in each compartment. The model has been used to study cardiovascular reactions to exercises and to determine efficiency of different compensatory reactions to postural tests.
