The equation is used to describe how waves, such as sound waves or electromagnetic waves, propagate through the ocean. This paper presents the Elzaki transform residual power series method (ET-RPSM) for the analytical treatment of fractional-order Helmholtz equation. To develop this scheme, we combine the Elzaki transform (ET) with the residual power series method (RPSM). The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The ET is capable of handling the fractional order and turning the problems into a recurrence form. We implement the RPSM in such a way that this recurrence relation generates the results in the form of an iterative series. Some numerical applications are considered to demonstrate the efficiency and authenticity of this scheme. The obtained series are determined very quickly and converge to the exact solution only after a few iterations. Graphical plots and absolute error are shown to observe the authenticity of this suggested approach.
