The Blasius equation for laminar flow comes from the Prandtl boundary layer equations. In this article, we establish a new and generic Blasius equation for turbulent flow derived from the turbulent boundary layer equation that can be used for turbulent as well as laminar flow. The analytical and numerical solutions have been investigated under specific conditions to the developed new Blasius equation. The analytical and numerical results have been compared through tables and graphs to validate the established model. In fluid dynamics, analytical solutions to complicated systems are tedious and time-consuming. Changing one or more constraints can introduce new challenges. In this case, symbolic computation software provides an easier and more flexible solution for fluid dynamical systems, even if boundary conditions are adjusted to explain reality. Therefore, the MATLAB code is used to investigate the new third-order Blasius equation. The comparison and graphical representations demonstrate that the achieved results are encouraging.
