The presented communication provides the analysis of entropy generation and heat transport rate in peristalsis of hybrid nanofluid induced by metachronal ciliary beating under magnetic environment for sufficiently large magnetic Reynolds number. Nanoparticles of Cu and Al2O3 are suspended in water. Features of their structures are determined by using long-wavelength approximation with zero Reynolds number. Adams Bashforth method has been applied to compute the results of the flow variables as well as entropy generation number from the formulated differential system which are then interpreted graphically to establish physical significance for different values of physical interest. This investigation reveals that thermal performance of fluid can be boosted by utilizing hybrid nanomaterial about the strength of a wall for stability. Irreversibility analysis ensures that entropy reduced for strong magnetic field while thermal heat generation results in an increase in temperature causing an enhancement in entropy of the system. Error analysis has been performed with reasonably accurate tolerance level. The comparative outcomes of both numerical approaches are presented with plentiful graphical as well as numerical demonstrations which demonstrate the importance in terms of robustness, accuracy and stability.
