The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM) coupling method is used to simulate the flushing process of the toilet and this paper analyzes the influence of different structural parameters of siphon pipe on the flushing performance of the toilet. And through the adjusted-parameters toilet, tlushing experments were carried out to verify the simulations. Meanwhile the orthogonal test of different structural parameters of siphon pipes were conducted to study the flushing Performance. The research results show that the CFD-DEM coupling method can be used to study the regularity of the toilet flushing performance. The toilet can get the better flushing performance when the tilt angle of the angle of inclination is 50°, the curvature width and length are 50 mm and 220 mm, the width and height of the secondary water seal are 100 mm and 25 mm and pipe diameter is 53 mm. The method in this paper can provide a new idea for the study and design of the flushing performance of the toilet.
