 inside the horizontal tube, where they are bent at opposite right angles, 

 so that the inner end of one of them the proximal tube points up

Fig. 58. Diagram to show principle of Pitot's tubes for measuring velocity pulse. In both 

 tubes the fluid will rise because of lateral pressure, but in the proximal (left-hand) tube it will 

 rise higher than in the distal, because it will also be affected by the velocity of flow.

 in C stands higher than that in D in proportion to the velocity of flow of the blood along 

 AB.
