If I have a system like this...

1" 0 psig
^
|
3" 80 GPM 60 psig>-----------|----------> ? psig, 3"

How do I find the pressure drop across the tee if the 1" line is dumping water to atmospheric pressure. Basically I need to find an equation that finds the pressure in the right hand pipe taking into account a loss of mass flow. I couldn't find one anywhere.
