    BACKGROUND
    The first International Symposium on Two-Phase Flow Modelling and Experimentation was held in Rome, and was attended by delegates from more than 35 countries. The second edition was held in Pisa in 1999 and gathered about 300 participants in a very friendly environment. The Symposium is organized by the Assembly of World Conferences on Experimental Heat Transfer Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics. The objectives are to bring together researchers, designers, experimentalists, modellers, and numerical analysts from industry, laboratories and academia, active in the area of two-phase and multiphase flow, to present the state-of-the-art, to exchange their expertise and experiences and to further stimulate their research activities. Several keynote lectures will be presented at the Symposium. Contributed papers are requested dealing with experimental work, theory, analysis, design, numerical studies, modelling on fundamentals and applications of two-phase and multiphase flows, including heat and mass transfer, fluid mechanics and thermodynamics aspects. Papers are also solicited reporting measurement or visualization techniques, innovative instrumentation, and analysis of experimental data, as well as theory or numerical results

    GENERAL INFORMATION

    Language

    The official language of the Symposium will be English.

    Location

    The Symposium will be held in the Congress Palace of Pisa (for the location, see the lower right side of the map ). Pisa is a lovely city located not far from Florence (1 hour by train) in the north of Tuscany, one of the most wonderful regions of Italy. Its international airport is well connected to the main European cities. The Miracles' Square with the Dome, the Baptister and the world-wide well known Leaning Tower represent the most unique and original complex of the tuscan Romanesque architecture. But many other attractions deserve some attention from the tourists such as the sculptures and the paintings of the local Thirteenth and Fourteenth century stored in the St. Matthew National Museum, the ancient city, and many wonderful churches. Pisa is also a convenient location for exploring Tuscany hills, wineyards, and its beautiful cities, such as Florence, Siena, S. Gimignano, Lucca, Volterra, etc. It offers also the possibility to reach most of the touristic attractions of Italy (Rome, Venice) by train (about 4 hrs.). The climate in late September is normally very pleasant in Pisa.

    Special Symposium for the 65th birthday of Prof. Richard Lahey

    The meeting will have a follow up in the morning of Saturday 25 to host a Special Symposium to honor the 65th birthday of Prof. Richard T. Lahey. The Special Symposium, whose participation is included in the conference fee, will feature several distinguished multiphase scientists providing keynote addresses on topics of their choice that relate to the the title of the ISTP04, and will be followed by a reception.
