Title
Whirlpool- Action of Water from "Our Romantic Niagara" by A.H. Tiplin
Description
en-CA The rush of water enters the pool and is carried down past the river outlet on the right. It then circulates counter-clockwise around the pool, and on approaching the entrance finds itself cut off from the incoming stream. Pressure (Hydrostatic pressure) builds up from behind, forcing it down under the incoming stream and it emerges near the outlet in dark rolling slugs of water.
