• The Falkner-Skan wedge flow
• Uniform suction
• Approximate analytical solution
• Homotopy analysis method

Based on a new analytical method, namely homotopy analysis method (HAM), an approximate analytical solution to the Falkner-Skan wedge flow; with the boundary conditions of f(0) = gamma > 0, f'(0) - 0.f'( infinity) = 0, i.e. the permeable wall mass transfer conditions of uniform suction, is given. The comparisons are also made between the results of the present work and numerical method by 4th-order Runge-Kutta method combined with Newton-Raphson technique. It is found that the results of the present work agree well with those by numerical method, which verifies the validity of the present work.
