In this article, a combination of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and the Padé technique called thehybrid homotopy-Padé method is employed to obtain the approximate solution of nonlinear equations arisingin heat transfer. The comparisons are also made between the results of the hybrid homotopy-Padé method andthose of the HPM. The comprehensive results reveal that the homotopy perturbation method in conjunctionwith the Padé technique provides better results compared to the HPM
