Abstract
For the Blasius problem, we propose an approximate analytical solution in the form of a logarithm of the hyperbolic cosine function which satisfies the given boundary conditions and some known properties of the exact solution. Furthermore, adding some hyperbolic tangent functions to this solution, we obtain much more accurate approximate solution with the relative error less than 0.16% over the whole region. The superiority of the proposed solutions is shown by comparison with the existing approximate analytical solution.
