Description

This dataset contains the raw experimental measurements from a controlled laboratory evaluation of a dual-intensity atomizing shower system (Hydroverse AuraMist) compared against a conventional continuous-flow showerhead. Data were collected across 10 independent 300-second trials per system at a standardized supply pressure of 300 kPa and ambient conditions of 22 ± 1°C, 45 ± 5% RH. The dataset includes: (1) gravimetric water consumption measurements with calculated volumetric flow rates; (2) infrared thermal imaging log data including inlet temperatures, mid-plume spray temperatures, and calculated temperature drops (ΔT); (3) standardized soil removal test results on silicone skin simulant plates with absolute removal percentages and water-normalized cleaning efficiency values; and (4) descriptive statistics and sensitivity analysis outputs.
