Is the flow rate the same when oxygen at a constant temperature and pressure is divided and fed into pipes of the same diameter?

Is the flow rate the same when oxygen at a constant temperature and pressure is divided and fed into pipes of the same diameter? I would like to ask everyone.
Not necessarily; it also depends on the process and various factors such as whether the elbows are identical, whether the pipe wall roughness is the same, whether the pipe lengths are equal, whether the valves and fittings are the same, and whether there is the same level of insulation. Basically, the fewer the influencing factors, the easier it is to flow, which is commonly referred to as saving effort.
More or less the same; the transmission distance is not long
Whether these are equal depends on factors such as the usage of the two branches, the total amount, and pressure. It’s best to explain things using actual on-site problems; create a simple diagram to illustrate the goal that needs to be achieved. Using visuals makes discussions easier and serves as a reference.
