Analysing the fluid flow and heat transfer of the inclined rectangular cavity filled with Aluminium Oxide /Iron Oxide -water nanofluid is the main objective of this study. The study of these nanofluids has immensely improved, and determinations exhibit that these fluids are significantly heat transfer fluids for numerous industrial sectors such as electronics, manufacturing, automotive, and construction and building. The left and right walls of the cavity is uniformly heated and cooled, respectively. The cavity’s top and bottom walls are partly heated and cooled; other portions are adiabatic. The Marker-And-Cell technique and the finite difference methodology are employed to examine the pertinent parameters: Hartmann number (Ha), Darcy number (Da), nanoparticles volume fraction , heat sink or source (Q), and inclination angle of the cavity . Results are graphically visualized with isotherms, streamlines, and average and local Nusselt numbers. In comparison with -water nanofluid and -water nanofluid with of nanoparticles, the -water nanofluid improves the transfer of heat by . In terms of flow of fluid, transfer of heat, and local and average heat transference rate, -water nanofluid performs better than -water nanofluid.
