The flow characteristics in a bifurcated duct are investigated experimentally. Physical properties such as mean velocity vectors, mean vorticity, and total pressure distributions are obtained for three different Reynolds numbers (578, 620, 688) using PIV measurements and CFD analysis. Also, two different dividing ducts ($90^{circ},;60^{circ}$) were selected for study. The results of this study would be useful to the engineers designing flow systems for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and waste-water purification plants.
