  The phase diagram of the 2D Ising model confined between two infinite walls
and subject to opposing surface fields and to a bulk "gravitational" field is
calculated by means of density matrix renormalization methods. In absence of
gravity two phase coexistence is restricted to temperatures below the wetting
temperature. We find that gravity restores the two phase coexistence up to the
bulk critical temperature, in agreement with previous mean-field predictions.
We calculate the exponents governing the finite size scaling in the temperature
and in the gravitational field directions. The former is the exponent which
describes the shift of the critical temperature in capillary condensation. The
latter agrees, for large surface fields, with a scaling assumption of Van
Leeuwen and Sengers. Magnetization profiles in the two phase and in the single
phase region are calculated. The profiles in the single phase region, where an
interface is present, agree well with magnetization profiles calculated from a
simple solid-on-solid interface hamiltonian.
