The boundary integral equation

According to Green's theorem, the perturbation potential , tex2html_wrap_inline37 , at any point P on the cavity or on the wetted foil can be expressed as [1]:

  equation104

where S is the surface of the wetted foil or the cavity, W is the surface of wake and r is the distance from the surface element ds to the point P.
