Summary
This paper is devoted to the study of a free‐convective boundary‐layer flow modeled by a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. We apply a modified variational iteration method (MVIM) coupled with He′s polynomials and Padé approximation to solve free‐convective boundary‐layer equation. It is observed that the combination of MVIM and the Padé approximation improves the accuracy and enlarges the convergence domain.
