Flow boiling one of the most interesting and relevant two-phase flow phenomenon for nuclear reactor operation and safety. The verification of multi-bubble evaporation and condensation model has been conducted and applied to flow boiling simulation. The flow boiling simulations presented in this paper aims to demonstrate the potential of direct numerical simulation approach to study local bubble behavior in unstructured mesh domain using several nucleation sites which exhibit qualitatively different behavior.
