Does Google limit how much traffic it sends to a domain via search results?

I've started to notice that I seem to get a set amount of results sent to me via Google search. On an average day, certain pages will get consistent hits from search results. Whenever I post something new that is trending it will shoot up and gather a huge amount of traffic from Google. Whenever this happens, all other pages on my site drop way below what they had been consistently getting before this post became popular.

It seems like Google has allocated a set number of clicks to my domain each hour and if one post becomes highly relevant for a short period of time, all of my long term popular pages suffer for this duration.

Having a new post blow up is never a big win for me anymore. Is this by design or have I done something to trigger this?

Edit The domain is DA 42 and is 7 years old. Only ever used for genuine blogging and writing. No content spinning and other spammy stuff.
