Question:

The "wye" fitting shown in Fig. P.3.110 lies in a horizontal plane. The fitting splits the inlet flow into two equal parts. At section 1 , the water velocity is \(12 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\) and the pressure is \(20 \mathrm{psig}\). Calculate the water pressure at sections 2 and 3 . Assume inviscid flow and a water temperature of \(60^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\).
