The present article studies a B-type Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation with certain applications in the fluids. Stating with the Hirota’s bilinear form and adopting reliable methodologies, a group of exact solutions such as the N-wave and other solutions to the B-type KP equation is formally derived. Some figures in two and three dimensions are given to illustrate the characteristics of the obtained solutions. The results of the current work actually help to complete the previous studies about the B-type KP equation.
