In this letter, we will consider variational iteration method (VIM) and Padé approximant,
for finding analytical solutions of three-dimensional viscous flow near an infinite rotating
disk. The solutions is compared with the numerical (fourth-order Runge–Kutta) solution.
The results illustrate that VIM–Padé is an appropriate method in solving the systems of
nonlinear equations. It is predicted that VIM–Padé can have wide application in engineering
problems (especially for boundary-layer and natural convection problems).
