Nanofluids play a prominent role in the development of various electronic structures and technological devices. Herein, we devise new and efficient techniques for overcoming the problems faced by the base fluids. This article describes water-based carbon nanotubes, including two major types of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). A mathematical model is considered for unsteady three-dimensional CNTs nanofluids flow with a uniform magnetic field between two revolving disks. The basic equations of the modeled flow problem are solved by the BVPh 2.0 package which is implemented using the Optimal Homotopy Analysis Method (OHAM). It has been observed that by stretching the top disk while keeping the lower disk stationary, the rotation aspect is reduced, whilst radial velocity near the top disk significantly increases. Moreover, The higher the values of unsteadiness parameter, the more accurate the temperature profile.
