• Blasius differential equation
• homotopy perturbation method
• Howarth's numerical solution

In this article, an analytic approximation to the solution of Blasius equation is obtained by using a new modification of homotopy perturbation method. The Blasius equation is a nonlinear ordinary differential equation which arises in the boundary layer flow. The comparison with Howarth's numerical solution shows that the new homotopy perturbation method is an effective mathematical method with high accuracy.
