【 摘 要 】

The article presents a number of dependences for reliable calculation of parameters required when performing supercavitation experiments. They include the equations and dependences for calculation of the shape and basic dimensions of cavities formed behind axisymmetric cavitators, influence of the free surface, cavity buoyancy, and cavitator lift, as well as compensation for certain scale effects.
