This paper theoretically examined the inherent irreversibility in hydromagnetic mixed convection of a radiating adjustable viscosity nanofluid between two concentric inclined cylindrical pipes. Thermodynamics’ first and second laws are incorporated into the two-phase nanofluid flow model problem to...
