The underlying intension of this study is to oversee the flow and thermal management of hybrid nanofluid (Magnesium oxide+ Zirconium oxide+ polyethylene glycol) within a conical gap among a cone and a disk. Forced convection is examined for two situations (a) rotating disk and the stationary cone; (b) stationary disk and the rotating cone. The dimensionless differential system for the proposed model is numerically simulated with a shooting procedure (RK 4th order). Outcomes are explained through graph and tables. The main outcomes of this study are found to be – Rotating disk and stationary cone show higher temperature field for increasing estimations of the radiation parameter ( $ Rd $ R d) and the magnetic parameter ( $ M $ M) near the boundary. Hence, for heat enhancement, one can use the disk – cone model. Furthermore, increases in $ M,Rd,{\phi _1},{\phi _2} $ M , R d , ϕ 1 , ϕ 2 and $ n $ n shows an increment in Nusselt number at the cone surface $ ({N{u_c}}) $ (N u c ) compared to that at the disk surface $ ({N{u_d}}) $ (N u d ). The desired cooling in the disk and cone device could be attained by keeping the cone fixed and the disk rotating and by maintaining the surface temperature constant. It is perceived that improvement in the volume fraction of $ MgO $ M g O and $ \,Zr{O_2} $ Z r O 2 nanoparticles significantly enhanced velocity of base fluid and heat transfer rate.
