The low thermal efficiency of the base liquids is the main issue among the researchers and to resolve this issue, scientists use the small-sized (1–100 nm) metal solid particles in the base liquids to increase the thermal efficiency of the base solvents. In the recent article, a theoretical study has been carried out for the thermal application functioning of graphene-oxide-water-based and graphene-oxide-ethylene-glycol-based nanofluids under the impact of the Marangoni convection. The nanofluid flow is also subjected to thermal radiation and magnetic field. The problem has been solved through optimal homotopy analysis method. The impacts of the embedded parameters over the velocity and temperature pitches have been analysed. Due to strong thermophysical properties of graphene-oxide-ethylene-glycol-based nanofluid, it is observed that the heat transfer rate of this sort of nanofluid is more efficient as compared to the graphene-oxide-water-based nanofluids. All the obtained outputs have been presented graphically and numerically.
