The 21st International Workshop on Trends in Numerical and Physical Modelling for Industrial Multiphase Flows will take place October 21-23, 2026 and will be hosted by the University of Twente, the Netherlands.
Multiphase aims at bringing together academia and industry, engineers and physicists, to jointly tackle today's many challenges in multiphase flow. The spirit of MULTIPHASE is based on promoting discussions, the exchange of points of views and ideas regarding complex, technical and scientific subjects, as well as to promote and inspire collaboration and cooperation between all participants.
In previous editions, both fundamental and industrially relevant topics have been addressed such as sloshing, wave breaking, wave impacts, noise propagation, phase change and mixing.
Background
Multiphase flow phenomena are ubiquitous in industry. Traditionally, they can be found in fields like chemical, nuclear and oil & gas industries and, more recently, in emerging (green) fields related to the energy transition. The physics of multiphase flows is rich as it encompasses both dispersed flows, with particles, drops or bubbles, and separated or stratified flows, characterized by the presence of interfaces. Moreover, the scientific knowledge behind multiphase flow technology spans different disciplines such as fluid mechanics, ocean engineering, transport phenomena, thermodynamics, geophysics and instrumentation design.
Organizing committee
The workshop is organized by Gaztransport & Technigaz (GTT), University of Twente (UT), and MARIN.
