In recent times, a different kind of nanofluid, namely hybrid nanofluid, has been taken to enrich the rate of heat transfer in base fluid additionally. In the present study, a novel type of hybrid nanofluid having H2O as a base with aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and copper (Cu) nano-sized particles has been numerically demonstrated to improve the flow at nodal/saddle stagnation point. Radiative heat transfer and the magnetic field are included in this analysis. Depending on Tiwari-Das nanofluid technique, an innovative direct mathematical idea has been framed and introduced. The rate of flow is measured through partial differential equation (PDE). These equations are complex nonlinear, so a set of appropriate transformations is used to decrease the order of these equations. The reduced system is evaluated by applying a fifth-order R.K. Fehlberg technique together with the shooting process. The obtained outcomes are exhibited in graphs and tables. The concluding remark is that the rate of heat transfer is increased by 20.51% and 49.81% in hybrid nanofluid when compared with hybrid nanofluid and all kinds of other fluids (i.e., regular and nano), respectively.
