AB - In this paper, we attempt to investigate the steady and laminar flow of incompressible water based nanofluid between inclined plates and over an inclined plate. A uniform and external magnetic field is applied in order to control the non-fluid-flow. The Cu-water based nanofluid can be also used for heat transfer enhancement. We can gain additional thermal energy in the fluid by increasing the volume fraction of Cu nanoparticles in the base fluid and improving the thermophysical parameters for the single-phase model. The results also show that adjusting the Prandtl and Eckert numbers causes the velocity profile to change fast. According to our findings, fluid elements may be more intensively accelerated by raising the nanoadditive concentration and enhancing the thermo-physical characteristics of the fluid.
