The incompressible laminar boundary layer along generatrices of a wavy wall is analysed referring to a curvilinear coordinate system.
Applying a new variable transformation the equation of motion for a wavy wall can be transformed to that for a flat plate.
It is found that the non-similar solution of boundary layer for a wavy wall can be obtained by only the transformation of variables in the similar solution for a flat plate.
Comparing with Blasius profile the velocity distribution is fuller on the convex part of the wall and thinner on the concave part.
In the limit of the present first approximation the skin friction is found to be equal to that of Blasius' solution.
Comparing the velocity profiles and skin friction with measured values in our experiments a good agreement is obtained.
