The combination of water as a base fluid and two different types of nanoparticles, namely aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and copper (Cu) is taken into account. The impacts of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and heat source/sink are examined. The governing coupled non-linear partial differential equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations using suitable similarity transformations. The solutions of the prin-cipal equations are computed in closed form by applying the MATLAB bvp4c method. The velocity and temperature pro-files, as well as the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number, are discussed through graphs and tables for various flow parameters. The current simulations are suitable for the thermal flow processing of magnetic nanomaterials in the chemical engineering and metallurgy industries. From the results, it is noticed that the results of copper nanofluid have a better impact than those of aluminium nanofluid.}, type={Article}, title={Unsteady magnetohydrodynamic free convection and heat transfer flow of Al2O3‒Cu/water nanofluid over a non-linear stretching sheet in a porous medium}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/131265/PDF-MASTER/17_AOT-00526-Joel_Mathews_LS_09-05-2024.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ather.2024.150449}, keywords={Non-linear stretching, Magnetohydrodynamics, Viscous dissipation, Heat source/sink, Porous medium}, }
