How are pressure and temperature calculated in the oil transfer pipe?

What are the pressure and temperature in the junction pipe after the two pipelines meet? If the density inside the main conduit has been measured, how can the densities in the two branch conduits be calculated? I would appreciate your guidance. Thank you.
Since heat dissipation is highly dependent on environmental factors, I believe that the pressure and temperature at the junction points cannot be determined accurately using formulas. If such formulas could provide accurate results, then there would be no need to set separate temperatures and pressures for the main pipes and branch pipes in practical applications
The distance is small, and the physical properties of the two oils don’t differ much either; so there shouldn’t be a significant difference between the calculated values and the actual values, right? Could you recommend some relevant materials?
Can it be weighted proportionally according to the flow rate in each branch pipe?
