Abstract
By means of numerical calculations on the BéSM6 computer, we study the effect of surface tension on the size and rate of collapse of a cavitation bubble for the entire region of surface tensions of real liquids σ=(160)·10 -2 N/m (at temperatures 290 K). The effect of two parallel solid walls bounding the liquid is taken into account.
