The paper studies the effects of the mass transfer term in the previously presented modified Rayleigh-Plesset equation which includes mass flow across the boundary of a spherical bubble. Some interesting conclusions are drawn regarding the relative importance of the term during the unbounded bubble growth modeled numerically. In addition, the paper proposes an experimental cavitation modeling design based on a convergent-divergent nozzle, as the focus of the experimental investigation of cavitationlbubble nucleation in a gas contaminant water mixture has progressively turned from the nucleation pulse technique applied at a shock-tube to depressurization in a flowing liquid.
