This article is devoted to an extension of boundary elements method (BEM) for solving elliptic partial differential equations of general type with constant coefficients. As the fundamental solution of these equations was not available in the literature, BEM was not able to handle them, directly. So the dual reciprocity method (DRM) has been applied to tackle these problems. In this work, a fundamental solution for these equations is obtained and a new formulation is derived to solve them. Besides, we show that the rate of convergence of the new scheme is quadratic when singular (boundary and domain) integrals are calculated, accurately. The new scheme is applicable on complex domains, without needing internal nodes, just same as conventional BEM. So the CPU time of the new scheme is much less than that of the DRM. Numerical examples presented in the article show ability and efficiency of the new scheme in solving two-dimensional nonhomogenous elliptic boundary value problems, clearly.
