Solutions of such equations are required to analyze and pre-dict changes in physical systems. Solutions of such equations require efficient and effective tech-niques to get reasonable accuracy in lesser time. For this purpose, current article proposes residual power series algorithm for higher order parabolic equations with variable coefficients in multiple dimensions. The proposed algorithm provides closed-form solutions without linearization, discretization or perturbation. For efficiency testing of the proposed methodology, initially it is implemented to homogeneous multidimensional parabolic models, and exact solutions are com-puted. In next stage of testing, proposed algorithm is enforced to three-dimensional non-homoge-neous fourth order parabolic equation, and closed form solutions are recovered. The obtained results indicate the validity and effectiveness of proposed methodology, hence proposed algorithm can be extended to more complex scenarios in engineering and sciences.
