Sumario:Abstract The magnetohydrodynamic hybrid second-grade nanofluid flow towards a stretching/shrinking sheet with thermal radiation is inspected in current work. Main concern of current investigation is to consider hybrid $$Al_{2} O_{3} - Cu$$ A l 2 O 3 - C u nanofluid which is perceived by hanging two dissimilar kinds of nanoparticles known as alumina and copper within the base fluid. The fluid motion is produced by non-linear stretching/shrinking sheet. The modeled equations which comprise of energy, motion and continuity equations are changed into dimensionless form using group of similar variables. To determine the solution of transformed problem, the Homotopy Analysis technique is used. The findings of this work revealed that the magnetic parameter improves the heat transfer rate. This work also ensures that there are non-unique solutions of modeled problem for shrinking case and a unique solution for stretching case. Higher values of $${\text{Re}}_{x}$$ Re x results in declining of flow field. Rise in $$M$$ M agrees to a decline in velocity distributions. Higher values of second order fluid parameter reduces the viscosity of fluid and accordingly velocity increases. Velocity profile is also a decreasing function of volume friction.
