y Free surface definition:
y = η(x,z,t) or F(x,y,z,t) = 0

Unknown variables:

Velocity field: v (x, y, z, t) = ∇φ (x, y, z, t)
Position of free surface: η (x, z, t) or F (x, y, z, t)
Pressure field: p (x, y, z, t)

Alternatively: a particle P on B remains on B, i.e. B is a material surface; e.g. if P is on B at
t = t0 , i.e.
so that, following P, B = 0.

For example, flat bottom at y = −h:
∂φ/∂y = 0 on y = −h or B : y + h = 0
