Description
Water Droplet Falling Project Description
In this project, numerical simulation of water from falling on resident water has been done using Ansys Fluent software. The goal of this project is to simulate raindrop impact on resident water. The Eulerian multiphase model has been used. The drop has an initial speed of zero, and gravity force pulls it down. gravity considered as -9.81 m/s-2 in y-axis.
Geometry & Mesh
The 3-D geometry of the present model is carried out using Design Modeler software. The geometry consists of three sections. The lower section is resident water. The upper section contains the outlet, and the upper section is air; the drop is considered a sphere of water with a physical diameter.
The meshing of this present model has been generated by Ansys Meshing software. The mesh grid is unstructured with no element quality lower than 0.53, and the total cell number is 3116593. the figure below shows an overview of the performed mesh.
Water Droplet Falling CFD Simulation
To simulate the present model, several assumptions are considered, which are:
- The solver is pressure-based and transient.
- Simulation has only examined fluid behavior; in other words, heat transfer simulation has not been performed.
- The effect of gravity on the flow is considered to be 9.81 m.s-2 and along with the y-axis in the present model.

Lorenza Schneider –
I wasn’t able to see the effect of the water droplet merging with the resident water in the simulations. Can you explain if the merging dynamics are visible in the results?
MR CFD Support –
Yes, the merging dynamics of the water droplet with the resident water are visible in the results. The animation and the two- and three-dimensional contours of velocity and volume fraction provide a clear picture of how the water droplet impacts the water surface, merges, and how the resulting ripples and disturbances propagate.
Colt Grimes –
The description mentions using the ‘intersection Interface.’ Could you please explain what that means in the context of the simulation settings?
MR CFD Support –
The ‘intersection Interface’ refers to a boundary set up within the simulation where two different regions meet, in this scenario, where the falling droplet meets with the resident water. At this interface, conditions must be defined to simulate the interaction between the droplet and resident water as they come into contact and interact during the simulation, such as the exchange of momentum between the phases.

Was the simulation able to capture the crown formation typically seen when a droplet impacts on resident water?
MR CFD Support –
In the results of the Water Droplet Falling CFD Simulation project using ANSYS Fluent, the behavior and interaction of the water droplet as it impacts the resident water have been captured, including the effects that lead to crown formation. The Eulerian multiphase model and the conditions applied help in visualizing the physics accurately, including gravity’s effect, droplet deformation, and splashing patterns, which indicate the potential of crown formation.

Esther Douglas –
Is the effect of surface tension between the water droplet and the resident water taken into account in this simulation?
MR CFD Support –
In the Water Droplet Falling simulation scenario, surface tension is an important factor that has likely been considered in defining the interface between the falling water droplet and the resident water. Ansys Fluent has the capability to include surface tension in multiphase flow simulations.
Tanner Wehner –
Was the effect of air resistance on the falling droplet considered in this simulation, and how does it impact the results?
MR CFD Support –
In the simulation, the multiphase model captures the interaction between the water droplet and the air. The effect of air resistance is inherently taken into account in the Eulerian multiphase framework, which influences the trajectory and deformation of the water droplet as it falls and impacts the resident water, resulting in realistic simulation outcomes.
Kitty Larson Sr. –
Does the simulation address how the water droplet’s properties, such as surface tension or droplet size, affect the results?
MR CFD Support –
The description does not include specific details on the surface tension or variation in droplet size. However, such properties are typically important in simulations of water droplet interactions and can definitely affect results. For accurate insight into these considerations, the actual settings and results within the Ansys Fluent simulation would need to be reviewed.
Everardo Jacobson –
I’m quite impressed with the comprehensive data provided and the detailed formulation of the CFD simulation. I imagine visualizing the droplet impact must have been compelling. Could you share specific insights into the effects observed in the resident water wave patterns after the droplet impact?
MR CFD Support –
Thank you for your kind words! Indeed, the visualization of the droplet impact is fascinating. After the droplet collides with the resident water, you can observe the formation of waves and ripples spreading outward from the point of impact. Moreover, intriguing phenomena such as splashing and the creation of secondary droplets, known as splatter, can also be evidenced. This is particularly useful for studies related to weathering in materials, soil erosion, or any application where rain impact plays crucial roles. The simulation provides valuable qualitative and quantitative insights into these dynamic interactions.
