Elizarov A.M., Fokin D.A., Galyavieva M.S. Problems of hydrofoil design for a given range of angles of attack//ZAMM. -- 1996. -- V.76. -- No.6. -- P. 337-340. Developing of efficient numerical methods of the design and optimization of hydrofoils for a given range of angles of attack is an importrant issue of modern hydrodynamics. Common approach to the investigation of the problems is based on solving the inverse boundary-value problem for two angles of attack. Initial data of the problem can be prescribed as function of different parameters, what affects the solvability and the method of the solving. For the case of incompressible ideal fluid around a symmetrical hydrofoil the problem was considered by M.~J.~Lighthill (1945). Velocity distribution and the angle of attack were prescribed. This idea was spread to the case of non-symmetrical hydrofoils by M.~Glauert (1947) and R.~Eppler (1957), and developed in a practical method of the hydrofoil design by R.Eppler and Y.Shen (1979, 1981). A variant of the problem formulation when the velocity distribution is given as a function of the arc length of the hydrofoil's contour is given by A.M.Elizarov and D.A. Fokin (1992). It is important to note that the use of the parameter $s$ allows to provide a non-stalling flow around the hydrofoil for a given range of angles of attack and to solve some interesting problems of the hydrofoil optimization. This paper is an attempt to pose the universal inverse problem for two angles of attack, when the initial data are given as a function of a generalized coordinate, and to indicate common way of its solving.
