Radiation, an inclined magnetic field, and variable viscosity play vital roles in heat transfer industries. These physical variables control the fluid flow where the high-temperature difference takes place. Here, the current work analyses the three-dimensional hybrid nanofluid flow with variable viscosity past a stretching sheet with the effect of an inclined magnetic field and radiation. With the help of a physical model, the governing equations are formulated. The systems of nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using dimensionless variables. The system of ordinary differential equations is reduced to a first-order system and solved numerically using MATLAB. The physical effects of an angled magnetic field, nanoparticle concentration, and radiation on the three-dimensional engineered fluid flow are represented by figures and tables. The results of the present problem are in good agreement when compared with previous works. It is found that the force of the magnetic field controls the fluid’s velocity when the inclined magnetic field acts against the designed fluid flow. The variable viscosity helps to enhance the heat transfer rate.
