Abstract
A dishwasher appliance includes a vent duct that is positioned within a door. A tub channel is separate from an ambient channel within the vent duct. An insert is positioned within the vent duct. The insert and the vent duct collectively define an outlet of the tub channel and an outlet of the ambient channel. The insert is positioned between the outlet of the tub channel and the outlet of the ambient channel along a transverse direction. The outlet of the tub channel and the outlet of the ambient channel each have a width along a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the transverse direction. The width of the outlet of the tub channel may be about equal to the width of the outlet of the ambient channel.
