This paper reports on studies of adsorption in spherical cavities of different sizes. The calculations have been carried out by the density functional approach. We have studied the influence of the cavity size and attractive particle-cavity forces on the phase behavior of confined fluids. We find that capillary condensation occurs. As the radius of the cavity is decreased, the transition is shifted toward lower densities of the bulk fluid, which is in equilibrium with the fluid in the cavity.
