An extended Fan's algebraic method is used for constructing exact traveling wave solution of nonlinearpartial differential equations.The key idea of this method is to introduce an auxiliary ordinary differential equationwhich is regarded as an extended elliptic equation and whose degree Υ is expanded to the case of r>4.The efficiency ofthe method is demonstrated by the KdV equation and the variant Boussinesq equations.The results indicate that themethod not only offers all solutions obtained by using Fu's and Fan's methods,but also some new solutions.
