Description
Description
In this project, a shower drain inside an inclined channel with 120 water input is simulated and analyzed by ANSYS Fluent software.
The drain in a shower should ideally be the lowest height on the floor. It has lots of applications in bathrooms, carwashes, pools, etc.
The geometry of this project is designed in ANSYS Design Modeler and meshed inside ANSYS Meshing. The mesh type used for this geometry is unstructured, and the element number is 1310945.
Shower Methodology
To analyze the air and water flow inside the channel, the multi-phase VOF model has been used to investigate the two-phase flow of air and water within this channel. The effect of gravity has been considered and is equal to -9.81 m / s2 in the Y direction.
Shower Conclusion
The results from 2-D and 3-D volume fraction, pressure, and velocity contours show that a correct shower floor has a slope. So, the positioning of the drain is such that water from all directions slopes down to the drain.

I am thrilled with the detail in the Shower Channel Drain simulation! Can you confirm if the study investigates the optimal slope for fastest drainage?
MR CFD Support –
Thank you for your compliments on the Shower Channel Drain simulation! The focus of the simulation is on the analysis of air and water flow dynamics inside a shower drain channel. While it demonstrates the importance of a correctly sloped floor for efficient drainage, the specific optimization for the fastest drainage may not be the primary goal of this particular simulation.
Mr. Guy Jones –
I found the project fascinating, especially how gravity and the VOF model were employed. I wondered if humidity or vapor effects were considered in the simulation?
MR CFD Support –
In this particular CFD simulation of the shower channel drain, the primary focus is on analyzing the flow of air and water using the VOF (Volume of Fluid) model, which is excellent for capturing the interface between these two phases. Typically, humidity and vapor effects may be neglected in such simulations because they don’t significantly impact the primary quantities of interest – the drainage performance. If a high level of detail regarding humidity or condensation were needed, additional physics models might be required.

I’ve just finished going through the Shower Channel Drain CFD Simulation training, and I have to say, it was incredibly informative. The way the multi-phase VOF model was applied to assess the interaction between air and water in the channel was detailed and clear. The inclusion of gravity effects and related flow dynamics around the drain provided a realistic perspective on how water should ideally slope towards the drain. It was excellent training for visualizing fluid dynamics in practical applications like bathrooms and pools. Thank you for such a well-structured and educational module!
