Boiling flows are commonplace in the nuclear industry. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is slowly beginning to be used to deliver the relevant two-phase thermal hydraulic analyses required for nuclear applications. This paper presents a blind assessment of the capabilities of the commercial CFD code STAR-CCM+ against measurements for a vertically upward mildly subcooled boiling flow approaching...
