Abstract
The irreversibility examination in steady flows of water based silver and copper nanofluids between two rotating disks is presented in this paper. The Darcy–Forchheimer relation is applied to the fluid flow. The two disks are kept at constant temperatures and are rotating with angular velocities. A magnetic field along radial and tangential directions is also applied. Moreover, viscous dissipation, heat generation, and Joule heating influences are taken in the nanofluid flows. The modeled problem is treated with the homotopy analysis method (HAM) and shooting techniques. The deviations in both nanofluids due to embedded factors are shown in graphs. The HAM and shooting techniques are compared and are shown with the help of figures and tables. The leading arguments of the current study are stated in the concluding section.

Summary
A suspension of solid nanoparticles in a base fluid is called a nanofluid. Such fluids have much greater ability of thermal conduction as compared to pure base fluids. To analyze the thermal transfer characteristics of fluids, Hwang et al. analyzed Al2O3 nanoparticles in water based nanofluids. The analysis of radiative water based copper and silver nanofluids was probed by Hayat et al.. The peristaltic flows of copper oxide water based nanofluids in a porous tube were presented by Akbar et al.. The magnetic field influence on convective threedimensional (3D) nanofluids was studied by Sheikholeslami and Ellahi.. Hayat et al. presented the magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid flow through an extending surface. Ellahi probed the MHD nanofluid with thermal dependent viscosity. The MHD fluid flow with Hall current was investigated by Shah et al.
