The most pressing issue now is to improve the cooling process in an electrical power system. On the other hand, nanofluids are regarded as reliable coolants owing to their exceptional characteristics, which include excellent thermal conductivity, a faster heat transfer rate, and higher critical heat flux. Considering these fascinating properties of nanofluid, this research looks at the flow of mineral oil based Maxwell nanofluid with convective heat. Moreover, introducing heat radiation, viscous dissipation and Newtonian heating add to the novelty of the problem. The coupled partial differential equations supported by the accompanying boundary conditions are numerically solved using an implicit finite difference method. The simulations are carried out using MATLAB software, and the obtained results are illustrated graphically. It is observed that the velocity of fluid increases concernign the relaxation time parameter but decreases against fractional derivative.
