Solutions to the Laplace-Young equation for free surface are obtained by proposed numerical method of minimalization. The three independent parameters, which characterize the free surface configuration are the half angle of the liquid-filled triangular groove, the Bond number and the contact angle of the shear-free meniscus. The results and program of calculations in Basic on HP 86B are given in the paper.
