A direct simulation of the density-wave oscillation limit cycle in a boiling flow system has been carried out. An unequal velocity, unequal temperature two-fluid description of boiling flow was used. The simulation procedure is aided considerably by first performing a linear stability analysis of the system in time domain. Comparison with experimental data is reported.
