AB - Present study is dedicated to investigate the water functionalized carbon  nanotubes squeezing flow between two parallel discs. Moreover, we have  considered magnetohydrodynamics effects normal to the disks. In addition we  have considered two kind of carbon nanotubes named: single wall carbon  nanotubes (SWCNT) and multiple wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with in the base  fluid. Under this squeezing flow mechanism model has been constructed in the  form of partial differential equation. Transformed ordinary differential  equations are solved numerically with the help of Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg  method. Results for velocity and temperature are constructed against all the  emerging parameters. Comparison among the SWCNT and MWCNT are drawn for skin  friction coefficient and local Nusselt number. Conclusion remarks are drawn  under the observation of whole analysis.
